detect.is-primary for HSC patch-level tests? about stile HOT 6 CLOSED

I think we might want to use detect.is-primary also on the patch level. We might not want to avoid duplicates even if they are in different patches... But it's not a strong opinion..

@TallJimbo , I know you haven't been following Stile development rather closely but since this question relates to flags from the HSC pipeline, i was wondering if you have any comments?

from stile.

I don't think I have any special insight here. In any analysis that covers multiple patches, you definitely do want to use that flag, but for anything that's confined to one patch it's just a matter of preference - do you want to get more information on the edges, or be more consistent with multi-patch analyses?

from stile.

Okay. In that case I would go with requiring detect.is_primary even when analyzing a single patch, since those are the objects that will get used if we were to later go to the analysis of a larger area.

Well, that's two votes for keeping the flag. I'll close this issue this
evening unless anyone objects before then!

Well, slightly more than three months after I said I was going to close this...I'm closing it!
