Reviewer suggestion:
Change tab order to: “Selected Data,” “Model Comparison,” “Figures,” “Estimates,” and “Model Selection.”
As it stands, after fitting the models, GenEst opens the model comparison tab (which makes sense). But the temptation then is to go to the next tab, which is "Model Selection" before looking at the plots or tables of estimates, so AICc then becomes the sole criterion for model selection. Moving the "Model Comparison" tab to the right of "Figures" fits with a rhythm of fit models, do some diagnostics, select model.
