Never thought of it that way. Sort of like the corrupt oil-for-food program with Sadaam Hussein.

As far as the accuracy goes, I know it is better to do it in 35-gallon increments. The thing is, it takes me 3 months to do an A-B-A test with hand-calculated mileage. That introduces other sources of variation (weather, etc.).
