PrecoveryCandidate HEALpixel IDs are currently set to the HEALpixel ID of the HealpixFrame. If we decide to re-index the observations to a higher nside parameter then Healpixel IDs from previous versions will not match the new ones. The solution is to return Healpixel IDs with an nside parameter significantly higher than the nside parameters with which we would ever consider indexing the observations. At this point matching Healpixel IDs from a higher nside parameter to a lower nside parameter is a simple rshift.
