Dear Marin,

I disagree. The FRC is not "a metric that measures the improvement
directly" in this case. It merely shows a lack of correlation. Adding noise
to the higher frequency components would have the same effect on the FRC.

As Oli pointed out, substituting one aligned version of a movie for another
one and repeating a few local refinement iterations wouldn't add any
ambiguity. If the algorithm, indeed, "improves the data significantly", it
should have a measurable effect at the end of the pipeline.

Cheers,
Dimitry
