I am. Unsheared positions are not even calculated.

the bmasks were always using sheared positions

Wait, so that means my whole thing of the positions having to be consistent was never true here?

esheldon commented 2 years ago

the mfrac were using the unsheared positions, but trimming was using sheared positions, so there was a mismatch

Ouch. So whatever effect I found in my sims did not happen here. Yikes ok.
