However, the computational cost of bootstrap increases with the size of the data at hand. Besides, some replicates may exhibit random violations of the positivity assumption even when the original data do not. Sandwich variance estimation relies on regularity conditions that may be structurally viola…

Wow, what Neighborhood Commercial District wouldn't value 50% increase in expenditures, let alone a doubling? (Based on MasterCard data of card use)
Over the years I visited a good friend in this area. This change is magical.
