reduces the effect of incidental overshoots

Explanation:
Единственно, как я могу понять это утверждение - это что "нивелируется" эффект редких больших (по-моему, их называют гигантскими) нестатистических выбросов. В противном случае систематическая погрешность "нивелироваться" не может, а случайная тоже никуда не девается и даёт возможность оценить не только среднее, но и распределение и статистикуБ и утверждение становится бессмысленным. Посему мой вариант

Sorry for the typo above, it is "Levels off" of course!
