Hi John!

I updated the writing, added in a section on inference, and started editing section 6. I think the population weighted SDID is our primary contribution for this paper -- so I think we need to emphasize it and hype it up! While I think the weighted average of SDID etc runs are interesting, I think they might distract from our contribution. So I propose we drop those from this paper and if we want, we can explore them in another one. If we're smart, we might be able to get a few papers out of this.
