Explain rationale #114

The README is solid, but does jumps immediately into examples of simulated data, without discussing why someone might want to join diagnoses in the previous year. This doesn't have to take much text; it could be a short bulleted list of use cases like "Discovering adverse events after surgery"/"Determining comorbidities before clinical trials." It's likely that users already know their use case, but an example lets them recognize it and think "this package is for me!"

Review: I agree and have substantially expanded the README. The suggested sentences are now also included under the "Typical use case" section.
