      More seriously, if you order it from an Electronics supplier, you can get a 6.2 Ohm resistor with a mere 1% tolerance (in some cases, even 0.5%).

      That said an EE, except in very specific cases such as reference resistors, would generally use a 10 or 5 Ohm one with 10% tolerance for any circuit that was supposed to be mass produced since it’s far cheaper and much more easy to source in the size you require.
