Just think about it, youre doing a non quantitative test, so
How do you determine where the test 'ends'?
Which source did you use for the starch, non reducing sugar, etc.?
How many repeats did you do?
and stuff like that

It's not meant to. You can figure out the limitations from the description of the test. You can't google the answers in your exams :wink:
