Should the creation of the external file depend on the existence of
*any* MeasureResult (with the same detector)? No, because:
 - There always is one, otherwise the 1st pattern wouldn't be true.
 - Apart from that: all existing MeasureResult's could be below 5, and
this should not block file creation.
