I think the interpretation on the 100% error free is along the line of:
After the file gets to it's destination, the source and the destination 
will be exactly the same, 100% of the time.  

The certification may be something like a therom, it is true until proven
false.

The protocal includes ways to handle loss of connection and other
major transfer problems (not just resending of blocks due to line noise).

Happy Holidays
