If this is indeed the tolerance promoted by Fogra, then I'm not

Sherfield that the values quoted should be cut at least in half to
have any meaning at all. The paper tolerance scares me the most...3
dE? are you kidding?
Read the documentation - it's published at www.fogra.org.
The paper tolerance is for a simulation of the ISO paper colour and 3
dE is the limit of the eye's ability to discern difference - which
provides a very good visual simulation of the final printed product.
FOGRA works as a contract proofing system in Europe and it is far
more useful than simply *trusting* the colour fidelity of a digital
Cromalin or an anonymous ink jet proof.
You can criticise the tolerances - but it should be noted that you
don't have a useable contract proofing system to rival FOGRAs.
