Great points,
When I sugest to give up on the supplement, I meant to drop only the stochastic model. The R_t stuff we should incorporate back in the methods section, the paper is still short. and would accommodate it well, I think.
I'll do that.

Solved, so closing.
We show a couple things in that first part: (i) tail behaviour -- inverse beta approach is more conservative, and; (ii) how to include prior information on R(t) under the inverse beta sampling distribution. These may be relevant to other people . [the other day we had a talk from a guy at Imperial working on Ebola where they employed R(t) calculations and complained about how to quantify uncertainty. Turns out we have a way to, uh?]
