Yeah, I think this is right. Markus did this once, when he switched to a DIPS-based model for pitching and outcomes. It was initially a hell of a setback because it took time to get it right, and I...

Wow, thanks! I'll post others I can find/think of as I come across them. There are fewer and fewer systemic issues with the database - as recently as 4-5 years ago, I always knew I'd need to tinker...
