1. Figure 2 is referenced but not included in the PDF provided. Is it available in the published version? If not, how can readers verify the “optimal weights” claimed in the text without visual evidence?

2. In Table 4 (statistics for S(t)S(t) and E(t)E(t)), the “Semi-interquartile range” values are sometimes larger than the median (e.g., for S(t)S(t) at t=0.4t=0.4, median = 4.71E−064.71E−06 but SIR = 3.13E−063.13E−06, which is plausible, but at t=0.3t=0.3, median = 3.00E−063.00E−06, SIR = 1.92E−061.92E−06 — how is the SIR calculated? It seems inconsistent across tables. Could there be a misinterpretation of quartiles or a computational error?

3. The authors claim AE ranges from 10−1010−10 to 10−610−6 (p.12), but in Table 4, some minimum errors are ~10−710−7 to 10−810−8 for later time points, yet the AE in Figure 4 is said to go down to 10−1010−10. Which one is correct? The numbers don’t seem to align.
