You write in Statement of Need

Current software tools for mixtures rarely report performance tests using data that reflect the complexities of real-world exposures.

Could you please provide references to these existing tools?

I added some citations here, specifically for the quantile g-comp method which does not provide adequate simulation data that reflect real exposure situations. I've also added a review article of methods that doesn't directly specify this problem but does discuss limitations of many methods, and I've also added an NIEHS article that discusses the needed for better vetted methods against some ground truth.
