Can Priya and Noah tell a pass from a fail at 32?

Priya Shah and Noah Kim, two trials on five parts, against 32 µin Ra. P3 and P4 cross 32. 162024283236P1P2P3P4P532Range of the two trials on each part. Filled is Priya Shah. Open is Noah Kim.P1P2P3P4P5Range, µin

Filled circles are Priya Shah. Open circles are Noah Kim. The line on the first chart is 32 µin Ra. P3 and P4 are the parts whose readings sit on both sides of that line.

Ra in µin, two trials, Priya Shah then Noah Kim. P3 and P4 cross 32 depending on who measures.
How this sheet sits with the others

Priya measures first, then Noah, two trials each. On P3, Priya reads 30 and 32 and Noah reads 34 and 29. On P4, Priya reads 33 and 35 and Noah reads 31 and 36. Those parts change sides of the 32 limit. The readings are the evidence. This sheet does not publish a percent GRR, and it does not show process spread over time.

What it makes visible
Priya Shah’s and Noah Kim’s two trials on five parts, against the spec at 32.
When it is useful
When a reading near 32 might change sides depending on who measures.
Who uses it
Priya Shah, then Noah Kim, the Friday backup on the gage. Noah is not the regular inspector.
What it takes
Two trials on each of P1 through P5, in µin Ra.
What it leaves
P3 and P4 cross 32 depending on who measures. No percent GRR.
The underlying record
Priya Shah's and Noah Kim's readings of the same five parts, and whether each part stays on the same side of 32 µin, are the measurement the capability claim and the bench tally cannot see on their own.
