Thanks.

I twitch when changes in GDP are reported to a tenth of a percent-- it seems to me that it couldn't be measured with such precision. Do you think I'm being reasonable?

My own (uninformed) intuition is that GDP changes would be much more accurate than absolute GDP values, just because systematic errors could largely cancel out.
