I.e. what rescale does in ssd_fit_dists()
three options in ssdtools: geomean, odds, none - shiny app options geomean (checked) vs none (not checked)
rescale
A string specifying whether to leave the values unchanged ("no") or to rescale concentration values by dividing by the geometric mean of the minimum and maximum positive finite values ("geomean") or to logistically transform ("odds").
from Becky email:
"Some distributions can fail to fit, depending on the units of the input data. Rescaling simply changes the scaling of the raw data and might make it possible to fit a distribution that failed on the initial data. Given we have narrowed down to a set of mostly stable distributions, this is less important than it once was. It could be useful if you are getting a low pboot (many bootstrap iterations are failing when you are trying to obtain confidence intervals)."
