Right and Left
I’d say the sum of the vertical angle on both left and right faces was out of spec.

Thanks for replying! I never paid attention to the (r+l) before until someone pointed it out. In my opinion, it’s too much information because I already know I’m taking direct and reverse readings. Who came up with the terms left face and right face?

Those terms are really old – predates glass circle instruments – and probably goes back to the days of vernier instruments where the circle was physically on one or other side of telescope and where you stood to read it.
