Changes to volatility framework #26

This section is quite rough and needs to be improved in order to support the Discussion section that follows it. Some ideas and concerns:

  1. CV is a standard measurement, especially in finance, so I don't think the paper needs to go to any length to introduce it. Just define as cv = σ / µ
  2. Section 4.1 explains in quite a bit of depth that CV varies significantly within indicators at the country level, implying that computing CV at the indicator level isn't very useful. But then section 4.2 goes on to do exactly that. This seems very contradictory, and I'm wondering if we need section 4.2
  3. Figure 4.2 is not explained or referenced at all
  4. Suggest replacing the imputation tool in 4.3 with what we discussed via email and is described on #23 and then writing the discussion text around that.
