Ideas where all posted in the BTK issue page (https://github.com/LSSTDESC/BlendingToolKit/issues). @BastienArcelin would you like to add an issue to simulate DC2 like-images? Not sure when we'll get to it, but it's good to have a record in other people are interested. I remember Francois mentioned it might be easy to simulate them from scratch instead of going through the butler, etc.
