Put bluntly, there isn't really a "right" thing to do under these circumstances, and I wouldn't fail someone in an interview for failure to suggest a drop-line. In fact, if a company absolutely insisted that a drop-line was the right and only right thing to do and the results were RIGHT and we've been doing it this way for YEARS so it MUST be right and don't you DARE suggest otherwise you 'orrible little pipsqueak who doesn't know anything like what WE do, 'cos that's what we've been doing and we've been in the business since 1972, I would be quietly relieved not to get the job.

Does it make any difference to this discussion whether the detector is concentration sensitive or mass sensitive ??? - as soon as I convice myself one way or the other I start to doubt my logic.
