normally independent simulations are done to give you precision estimates
of measured values. in most cases it would not be correct to plot this as a
30ns scale. Use a 1ns scale and show all 3 simulations so readers can
compare and estimate the reliability. how much more you should do with
these depends much on the details of your project.
