in the first call to abe you get the warning as to alert you to the fact that age.spl will be treated in such a way that all the components are dropped from the model. In the line starting with abe.fit1<- I get the same warning as in the previous call, so I am not sure what you mean? Yes, in the third call the argument type.factor="individual" is discarded and option type.factor="factor" is used; see vignette pages 10-12.
Thanks. Everything is clear now.
I am experimenting with the R code from the manuscript draft Version 6.
In the first call to abe, I receive a Warning. However, in the second I do not get an Warning. Why?
In the third call, type.factor = "individual" leads to a Warning, which I would expect. Do I understand the package correctly, that in this case type.factor = "factor" is used even if something different was used in the original call?
