To my American friends, I work for a Swiss company and through the years, have found it easiest to look at it this way.
These are a people that build tiny mechanical watches by hand and have a national sharpshooter competition.
EVERYTHING the Swiss do is maximum precision. It's not just a way of life, it's genetic!
I would not be surprised if, somewhere, some Swiss person is measuring the tines on his dinner fork to insure they're all the same width apart.
