Default Buying prop strike engine

Flange runout means absolutely nothing. Especially on Lycomings.
Because of the meatllurgy involved they don't bend, they break.

White Industries lists engines with flange runout. What does flange
runout tell about the engine?

It seems some prop strike engines have a larger flange runout reading
than others, and the larger the flange runout, the lower the price.
Why?

Thanks.
