Measurement instances from Measurements.jl[1] are treated as normal distributions with known means. Note: once you convert a measurement, you lose the functionality provided by Measurements.jl, such as exact error propagation.

Generic constructor

If x = measurement(2.2, 0.21) is a measurement, then UncertainValue(x) will return an UncertainScalarNormallyDistributed instance.
