safety first, don't you think 0.5 mbar over the minutes of the hour , over the hours of the day,over the days of the month it will build up enough to blow you up ,and the rest of your street !!!

What is wrong with you !!!!!

If it is that dangerous I think my gas cooker would have been immediately dis-connected back in March 2010 when the half MB drop in gas pressure was detected! I also suspect if the appliance belonged to the landlord it wouldn't have been dis-connected.
 
half a mb on a cooker is fine if there has been no smell of gas most old cookers loose preasure around the tap spindles thats why we have the permitted drop
however i recently had a row with comets on the phone a newly installed cooker was loosing 2mb instal sound without the cooker fited and they didnt think they should replace it
