I just doesn’t have much precision after 50 hours if not worn so why does it have a 72 hour PR?

And as has been said in previous posts the precision issues may not be noticed by some owners and could take some time to manifest.
Good point Eddie and great question about the 70 hour, if it loses accuracy after 50 why bother to extend it from the 48 ish the 3185 had? In one of the posted articles, the watchmaker suggested that Rolex’s desire to extend it to the current 70 hour energy storage is the cause of the problem with the 35. Interesting question is if there could be a permanent fix that resulted in a reduction to 48 hour power reserve(?)
