Why do two papers on FLOW report different headline figures?

Asked 20 Apr 2026Modified 3 months agoViewed 3.2k times

I have the full paper rather than the abstract, and the supplementary appendix.

I would like the mechanism, because I want to be able to reason about the cases nobody has written about.

I have tried to reason it out from first principles and got to two contradictory conclusions.

Can someone derive this rather than assert it?
