Thanks, Chris. I agree that the plots I've posted are just a start,
and we need to do a more careful comparison (as well as finishing the
coadds in my note!).
However, I think there are a few things in my posting that are already
clearly fishy:
1) the bumps at low ell in EE. I haven't seen comparable in any sims.
If you have them and can show them in a different color stretch, that
would be interesting.
2) the T jack failure. I don't see comparably bad in any other
jackknifes.
3) the correlation between the BB bumps in jackknife and non-jack. I
don't see that in the others you point to.
4) the TB correlation that matches between jackknife and non-jack.
