So you call the doctor and say: Doc, I am running a high fever. My
thermometer says 98.6 and I am used to seeing 93.6 on the same
thermometer I have been using for 10 years. What is wrong with me that
my temp is so high? Doc will say, get an new thermometer and call me back.

So yeah, your failure to do anything about your faulty reading gauge
doesn't mean you can't use it to tell that you are running warmer or
cooler than usual. But when a real problem comes up you can't provide
meaningful data to those you turn to for help.
