Sorry, but it's not clear to me where your comment applies.

Each of the metric RFCs cover error sources and error reporting,
so (if I understand your question) this is one of the areas to
check and see if implementing developers understood the requirements.

Yes, this draft starts from the premise that measurement results from
different implementations will be compared. Neither OWAMP or TWAMP
are required.
