They came up with 8 cm because that's as high as they went and they didn't need to go higher for some reason or other.
So you weren't ever tested at higher levels because 8 cm brought things down to the criteria where they could stop increasing the pressure.

There's a certain set of protocols that have to be followed during these sleep studies.

8 cm worked that night...next night it might not have worked out so great.

Sleep studies don't give people nearly the answers to question that they might want answers to.

Kind of bursts the bubble of medical "infallibility"--such a shock!
