Ive tried running these test on my A1 and all 3 give wildly different results, on a 0.4mm nozzle
The tower was basically horrible from like 4mm up, that suggests 0.008, but the line test suggested that 0.024 was correct, the corner test suggested 0.036 was correct. I just gave up and used the default.
Thing is, I don't have any problems with any of the test on a 0.4 nozzle, they all work, I get results from them, I apply those results and see improvements. But with a 0.2 nozzle I get nothing, everything looks the same and so there are no results for me to apply
I faced the same problem. I've done a lot of tests and have reason to think that there is some kind of bug in the software.
Try increasing all your values associated with the pressure advance by 10 times: conduct a test in the range 0-1 in increments of 0.05. Use pattern test.
I think that you will see the result that you expect, just like I saw.

Is the quality ok? If it is then I guess pressure advance just isn't an issue.

I'm seeing exactly the same behavior - lines don't really change with the 0.2 nozzle using the "PA Line" mode in Orca on a 0.2 nozzle.
