Peter Neilson noted: <<Whether that number 0.02 is really 0.020 or
perhaps something else deserves careful scrutiny, and is not merely a
matter of editorial judgment.>>
Good point, and in fact I had already added a comment explaining the
possibilities (including the alternative that the other numbers had
too many zeros added). The numbers all seem consistent and reasonable
from context (and given the data from other studies cited in the
paper). Should've made that clearer in my original message.
