Where these numbers come from
That range is converted to each grinder through its microns per click, plus or minus 2 clicks. Microns per click come from manufacturers or community measurements, so they are nominal: zero points and burr geometry differ between grinders.
Treat every cell as a starting point. Some grinders reach espresso range on paper but their burrs are not made for espresso; check the manufacturer's recommendation before you buy.
