<br><br>Working with my data to verify ceiling and floor liars, I used your replication code as a guide and got error messages about the Log likelihood not being monotonically increasing. But then I realized that I also get this error with your own code on your data, that is simply running the replication of your paper.
<br><br>In particular when trying to replicate Table 7, columns 3-6, as below, I get the error messages shown below (if I change the fit.start parameter, the error that pops out may change from object not found to non non monotonically increasing Log likelihood, but I always get an error anyways).
<br><br>In short, before concluding there is problem with my data specifically, given this finding I would like to point it out and make sure there is not a more general problem with the code (perhaps something got messed up in an software update or that of package dependencies?).
