Maybe my answer to your other question
https://ask.openlca.org/3527/how-is-the-sigma-calculated
already helps - the data quality is not directly linked to the Monte Carlo simulation, MCS only refers to the uncertainty. Only ecoinvent makes the bold step to claim uncertainty figures based on pedigree data quality.
Best wishes,
Andreas
