As far as I know, the story is true. If the input data just got better, you'd expect measurements above and below the real value.

IIRC, the experimental value went in one direction, from Millikan's to the currently accepted value.

Interesting but not fully convincing. I am sure I've seen a plot of values over time from the original to the 1950s or so. I must try and find it...

The linked SE question is relevant. https://hsm.stackexchange.com/questions/264/timeline-of-meas...
