you always need to consider uncertainty when comparing 2 methods.
the question here is really: is the variation between CG and TNCG results
*larger* than the variation between multiple runs using a single method?

the difference you see could very well just be run to run variation
(precision) and not at all an indicator of differences caused by the method.
