After sleeping on this, I think @LucyMcGowan's discussion on simulating a dataset for this might be best. Then we can deal with all the issues involved with this type of data/bias while also having the data be kind of fun or different

In retrospect, I think the right place for this is the longitudinal chapter so we can discuss the cloning solution to this, with a shoutout in the time zero discussion earlier in the book
