You need to consider whether as owner of Astronomy Alive and after making hundreds of telescopes over decades I know what I am doing - your call.

Chris - All Galaxy mirrors are serialized and have interferometric data supplied and on file. You can obtain it if you have lost it by contacting John Hudek at Galaxy . If you are making claims of this sort of accuracy ( 1/20 PV ) from a company that supplies IF data with all its mirrors , It would be reasonable to supply the data as it is supplied by the maker

May I recommend your enquirer make contact with myself directly, as whilst I applaud your efforts to support this process you are a wonderful telescope maker, and my only real competitor to my business hand crafting telescopes here in Australia. Should you be assisting or enquiring here ? - it a reasonable question, only you can answer that one.

I don't make telescopes, and I rarely make small mirrors such as in your telescope. I am often asked to advise people on purchases or test their optics , as I am doing here as I know how to ask the right questions and what the answers mean . You have supplied me with all the information I need to respond , thank you.
