Its Klipper default is 0.100mm meaning you’re accepting probe results that are off by hundreds of microns while the probe is precise to under 0.00250mm, so a value of closer to 0.00500mm is much more reasonable and produces more accurate readings, at the expense of them potentially not agreeing. Readings might not agree if the plate isn't thermally stable and expanding or contracting, for example.
