Hi: First of all I should say I was really impressed by the paper! It is such a well structured, as well as creative data analysis research. In the "Proof of Concept: What If We Fictitiously “Lose” Some Known Cities?" part, you concluded that your proposed inverse gravity estimation of the location of lost cities is reliable for central cities, but less precise for peripheral cities. As the location of lost cities plays an important role in your research, I was wondering how would the lack of accuracy in predicting peripheral cities impact your final result, and how are you planning on solving this issue. Thanks!
