So, Block A reads 15C with IHS and reads 12C without IHS. Block B reads 14C with IHS and 11C without IHS. Block C reads 13C with IHS and 10C without. At least, I hope that is the case, in which case, couldn't the IHS be taken out altogether to remove that variable?

I'm not sure I agree, in the strictest of senses. How many waterblocks would you have to test before you felt confident saying there is a linear offset, so then no need to test with an IHS - 3? 4? 5? It would only take ONE block not in agreement to disrupt this 'conclusion.'
