vs. directly from purely synthetic discussions as flagged in the developer conversation: https://github.com/epiforecasts/EpiNow2/blob/main/inst/dev/recover-synthetic/rt.R

Is this like fit to real data and then simulate from posterior? As you mentioned during F2F conversation

Yes kind of but with an additional step where you change the posterior Rt estimate for another simulated Rt trajectory (but everything else is from the posterior)
