I wavered a bit on a note, but I don't think it's really needed. I'll make sure all the others align with this in format.

It seems they are. The above mention things such as availability, uptime, purity, precision, accuracy

Should those be mentioned in a note? or just leave it at "nnnn nines (i.e. 99.9..9%)"?

  Comments:
Are these "nines" in Japanese not used in the availability sense they are used in English? This is a very common term in computing.

  Comments:
Yes, some consistency with these would help.
I suggest that for all of them we have "nnnn nines (i.e. 99.9..9%)"   No "eng" or "wasei" needed.

I notice that all the "_ nines" entries have different formatting. Maybe they should 
be standardized / reevaluated

Here are the ones I've found so far:
フォーナイン
シックスナイン
テンナイン
イレブンナイン
