You know it!
So many variables with lubed and dry threads, threads not clean, etc too.
I've also done a bit of testing, my tight vs wrench and doesn't seem to be too far off. I think using a smaller driver and some feel helps. Bigger tools offer big leverage and not much feedback.. Easy to give it a bit too much.
