nav, are you saying that making more guesses *improves* the accuracy

mathematically, additional guesses degrades the accuracy of prior
guesses.

It's a refinement of the same guess. If you know you're in a 1kt current, a
guess based purely on your steered course and speed would be less accurate
than if you refined the guess by accounting for the current.
