Millimetres of change that count as real movement rather than measurement
noise. Probing is reproducible to about ±1 mm between visits and examiners,
so 2 mm is the threshold the periodontal literature uses for attachment
loss/gain — and the one the 2017 classification's own progression reasoning
rests on. Exported so a caller can report on its own threshold instead.
