Not pure; but

Well, if we make a few assumptions;
1. linear correlation at the range of interest y-ohms x-temp
2. Use average of known ohm specs @ known temp

we can calculate the following equation y=(-.8)x + 28

extrapolate to 2 degrees C and get 26,400 ohms. If we add the shunt, the effective resistance would end up 20,900 ohms. If we further assume the spec range at 2 degress to be 6k. the spec could be 23.4k - 29.4k @ 2 degrees C.
