This whole discussion does not really apply to the LTZ1000 circuit, that 
is the bare 7.15..V output, w/o step up amplifier, as all drift 
parameters were attenuated by orders of magnitude, depending on the 
resistors, R1-R5.

In the eevblog thread, several volt-nuts measured the real dependency, 
in contrast to the datsheet, which simply claims 1:100 attenuation for 
each of these resistors:

Therefore, even humidity effects at most affect R4/R5, with 1/75 impact.

I also think, that it's possible for volt-nuts to measure such residual 
effects, by assembling several references, keeping the parameter of 
question (e.g. humidity or temperature) constant for the master 
reference, varying this paramater for a DUT, and evaluating the drift by 
monitoring the difference between the references.

Same goes for longterm drift, by using a group of many references (A man 
with one, two, three clocks..)

In the end, maintaining ultra precise references at first requires to 
care for controlled/constant ambient parameters, than to put too much 
effort to design references, which are immune to all possible drift factors.
