You're over-thinking it, "nuking it out" as we said in the Navy. Set it for either 82 or 84 and do it, 1lb-ft in either direction isn't going to hurt anything. The world isn't going to explode, you're not going to cause damage, nothing is going to fall apart, so just relax.
All torque wrenches (even the cheapest of Chinese ones) come with certificates, doesn't mean much. Years back, a buddy had a brand new Snap On (pretty expensive) that he'd used to build a few engines already...it was out of cal by almost 10% and had to be adjusted (we had a mobile guy come by every 6 months to calibrate).
