Well, that's the problem with the LP format. It's dependent on all these
little mechanical thingies that even the people who are making short
runs of $50 test records can't seem to get right. What hope would there

Does seem strange to me they could press to the accuracy needed but get
the hole off centre by many many groove widths...
