But then, wouldn't it also be seen in the first plot?

It is attached... but surprised me is not that the 2 sherpa options are
different, that is kind of expected, no? What worries me is why the Rivet
gave different (actually opposite) answers than simple draw of the truth
jets? If it is because the eta/pt are different, what should I "believe" to?

Thanks

Sure, sorry, in the first email (when you added the list) there was no
option of reply-all, just replay, I assumed it will be sent to an email
which is your name but actually the list :) the second one has reply -all
but I didn't bother to check that time... my mistake, sorry!
