awap:Are you expressing doubt of the assertion or just interested in the numbers? The idea that the most common time to have trouble with a regulator is following a service seems to be a very common claim on this board. My personal experience is that the first 3 times I had my regs serviced by an LDS (different one each time), I had problems after each service. So I went the DIY route with not a moments regrets. I'm sure more folks would be much happier with their tech service if they could fix minor problems as you can. It really is quite easy to fix many of the annoying post service problems like loose connections or a slight freeflow when the tech gets too aggressive setting cracking pressure.
Show reliable data, otherwise identify your claims as what they are, just anecdotes.
OR, find a reliable person to do your servicing.
