Hi @kinlane , just wondering... do you have any updates re: investigation progress, next steps, etc.?

Thanks!

Sorry I had reached out to the person who crowdsourced all the data behind -- the trim was something in their script. They haven't responded. The data would have to be re-run to get the email. It is something I can add to the task list, but unsure of resources internally to tackle. Hopefully community can help too.

Thanks for the insight, @kinlane . Makes sense. When and if the data can be "fixed"/completed, that would be great. I understand that's not likely to happen any time soon though.

Is this issue still open ? I would like to work on it.
