[Rivet] Is it possible? Rivet and truth look different

Ok, well the two sets of curves do look a bit different. Maybe this
could come from different eta acceptance and changes in Sherpa's
handling of beam remnant dipoles, etc. In the Rivet plot it looks to me
like Sherpas 1 and 2 could be ~consistent in the high-stats part, and
maybe the deviations elsewhere are just statistical jitter: can you make
the plot again with the --mc-errs option flag, to show the MC error bars?

Thanks,
Andy

PS. Please reply to the list, not just me! "Reply all" is usually a good
default model for work email... no-one wants to suddenly have all the
responsibility just because they were the first to reply ;-)
