A high ratio of uv3h/uv3 would probably indicate a bad machine, whereas a low ratio might be a sign that it's a machine that did a lot of double-checking of error-prone machines. See for instance GW/P4-2000, which 42 triple-checks pending (uv3) but 0 of them with harmful error codes (uv3h). Right now, for purposes of doing early double-checking, an error-prone machine has to have >= 0.333 error rate -- bad/(bad+good) -- and bad >=2 to avoid statistical flukes. Next time we do an early error-prone-checking release, I'll come up with a proposal to identify exponents based on uv3h with data to back it up.
