They are still stretch bolts and they didn't even stretch until after 40 something pounds. And 1
180 turn aka 2 90 turns is not equal to the missing 10lbs. Where did u get this info? It seems very iffy to me. Plus 22lbs is very very low. That can't be more then 1 or 2 turns past finger tight. Doesn't seem very tight for a seal.1985 325e 2.8 Turbo VEMS

I dont think it would affect it's accuracy at all because head bolts don't "Break" loose, they just budge a little at a time (at least in my experience). Mine is one of the old style wrenches like so: http://priuschat.com/shop/images/torque.jpg
I could see a newer style "clicky" wrench being a lot more fragile to this.
Sorry to bump the old thread btw. lol
