You'd think this would be an automatic, but this presents one problem...
This will almost always affect the spark ignition due to changing the location of the spark (plug).
It might be a minor thing, but this might throw the data off just enough...

My thoughts exactly. IT's a pity we can't have pressure transducers directly on the faces of the apex seals or combustion tub.
