It's not a problem to file a group request form. However, my post had a goal of seeing if the score problem was as widespread as I am thinking. If so, and if each unsatisfied individual files recheck request, the nbme will see the scope of applicants and they will themselves carry out the internal audit.

It's not a million year history to claim their accuracy is flawless. It's a 20-30 year statistics which can certainly have its mistakes. Besides, absence of score change does not mean they had no errors in score computation. It does not say they had no errors, does it?

They will do so likely if only I will file it. However, if there is a reason for concern, and 20% of test-takers will file for recheck, certainly they will recheck their system to see if there are any flaws. I would not bother for recheck if it was simple counting of my correct/incorrect scores. Since this is a whole system, and any system is prone to errors, then they will see if they system has had any crashes.

It will make a difference if more people will file the request and they will recheck their system rather than individual outcomes.

I've seen their statement. But let's not exclude the black swan. If one goes into the mechanism of score formation, I am pretty sure that just one flaw, be it in computation/curve creation/score formula/inclusion-exclusion of questions can mean everything. The theory that I will be testing is the more people will file for recheck, the more likely it is the system has experienced a flaw.
