Veselin pointed out that It might be worth adding to the code a difference image comparison between the measured In-Transit centroid and the catalog position of the target from e.g. Gaia instead of the IT vs OOT centroids. I’ve often noticed that the large TESS pixels and corresponding contamination from nearby field stars can make the IT vs OOT comparison highly challenging (or even downright meaningless). The downside for a comparison with Gaia is that the proper motion needs to be properly taken into account, but this would be a small price to pay.
