Both are well known to be accurate to
fractions of a degree over hundreds of years.
That we should not expect that heat, as such, in that location, to have any substantive effect on climate... as it corresponds to
fractions of a degree over the entirety of the ocean and has no effect on the energy balance.
Steve the whole point of the exercise seems to be that the entire climate scientist group (both sides) is quarrelling about whether the temperature of the world has gone up one or two degrees or
fractions of a degree over the last 100 years or so and whether it is caused by humans.

«What is generally required [for proving solar forcing
of climate change] is a consistent signal
over a number
of cycles (either the 11 year sunspot cycle or more long term variations), similar effects if the timeseries are split, and sufficient true
degrees of freedom that the connection is significant and that it explains a non-negligible
fraction of the variance.»
The chart I linked to shows how the disingenuous CAGW Alarmists use a MICROSCOPE to plot the

I'm sure it has some
degree of accuracy, but remember we're talking
