At the moment, this is not the point we are discussing about. The tests 
performed in this example were the ones we agreed on in Zagreb as the ones 
the service desk (which in this case is the requester for the tests) wants to 
have. As to wether they are interested in such results or not, it's up to 
them to decide. As they decided to have these tests, they get them. I 
personally think, that the purpose of these self-testing feature was at first 
hand, to have exactly this kind of information. However requesting more 
meaningful tests is of course on the agenda for a later stage.

Could be changed easily, thanks for noticing it.
