lme4::ranef sets condvar = TRUE by default, and with notably large data with lots of groups for a random effect, this may be prohibitively slow. It'd be good to have an option to turn it off (which should automatically turn off CI options as well). As an example, find_typical only needs the value, so anything else is wasted computation.
