Ah, wait. Perhaps I should make this comment "we know that the two
mechanisms produce the same result". Hmmm....

John C. Bollinger coughed up:
I disagree, but I understand this point.
Perhaps consider this code:
double pi_1 = computePIoneWay();
double pi_2 = computePIanotherWay();
if (pi_1 == p1_2)
{
//we know mechanisms are the same...

}
vs.
double pi_1 = computePIoneWay();
double pi_2 = computePIanotherWay();
if ((pi_1 == p1_2) ||
(isNaN(pi_1) && isNaN(pi_2)))
{
//we know mechanisms are the same...
}
