This appears to be a floating point truncation error. CSV files were written with float_format=%.3f which causes a < 1 % disagreement. However, this disagreement seems to grow when working with the TMB product. See https://github.com/GEUS-Glaciology-and-Climate/mass_balance/issues/20

Issue is diagnosed and dev patched. See: https://gist.github.com/mankoff/4e4ae109824e1a4a72659fad025e24ea
