EASA LOs in instrumentation DO NOT consider barometric 'error' as an error at all - which is isn't. The altimeter is working correctly indicating the vertical distance from the sub-scale setting. Just because the setting is not referenced to MSL or airfield QNH doesn't mean that it isn't working correctly - it just means the indication have little or no useful value.
