Two summaries reported something better than what they were given. `check_diagnostics()` and the printed fit summary both take a worst-case Rhat, and both filtered the column with `is.finite()` first. An Rhat of Inf is a parameter whose chains did not mix at all, which is the single worst outcome either line exists to show, so a fit holding 1.001 and Inf reported a maximum of 1.001 and raised nothing. Infinite values now reach the statistic. A value that is genuinely absent is a different case, and a constant generated quantity legitimately has no Rhat, so those are counted and named rather than dropped from a number that calls itself the maximum. The tail-ESS block a few lines below already did exactly this; Rhat and bulk ESS now follow it, through one resolver shared with the print method so the two cannot disagree about the same fit. Divergence and treedepth counts went through a reader that maps anything unusable to 0. For the chain counts that is guarded separately, but for these two 0 is the reassuring answer, so a fit whose sampler behavior was never reported passed the check in silence. They now stay unknown and say so. `mlumr_forest()` chose its reference line from `log_x`, the axis transform. That agrees with the measure whenever a ratio is drawn on a log axis and disagrees otherwise: a hazard ratio, risk ratio or RMST ratio on a linear axis was given a null at 0, which those measures cannot take. `.null_ref_for()` already existed for this and its comment says it is shared by both forest plots, which was true of one of them. A frame carrying an `effect` column now gets the same null here as it would from the package's own method; without that column there is nothing to read and the axis stays the only hint. An existing test asserted that a fit with unavailable diagnostics warns about nothing. Its stated subject is Rhat and ESS, which still hold: their absence is a message. It also set the transition counts to NA, and that is the case this commit changes, so the fixture now gives known counts and the unknown-count behavior has a test of its own. Full suite: 3324 pass, 0 fail, 0 error. The forest tests fail against the previous sources rather than erroring on absent functions, so they measure the change and not its absence.

`mlumr_forest()` takes any data frame, so its `effect` column holds whatever the caller wrote. `.null_ref_for()` answers 0 for every label outside `.ratio_measures`, which is right for a difference and wrong for a ratio it has never heard of. A frame labeled "OR" was therefore given a null of 0, and on a log axis the positivity check refused the plot outright, where reading the axis had been right before this branch. An unrecognized label is not a difference; it is an unknown. The measures the package itself produces are now named on both sides, and only those override the axis. Anything else, like having no `effect` column at all, leaves the axis as the only thing there is to read. A recognized difference on a log axis is still refused, because that is a genuine contradiction rather than an unknown. Full suite: 3335 pass, 0 fail, 0 error.

`.null_ref_for()` and `.known_measure()` both match labels case insensitively. The mixed-scale guard immediately in front of them compared the raw strings, so a frame carrying "HR" and "hr" was refused for mixing two effect scales while the resolver behind that guard would have given both rows the same null. This branch introduced the second reading; the guard predates it and was consistent until then. The comparison is now on the normalized labels. The message still prints them as the caller wrote them, since that is what they have to go and find, and a frame genuinely mixing HR with LOG_HR is refused exactly as before. Full suite: 3339 pass, 0 fail, 0 error.

Fixed in f3d1c58, and the finding was right about a mismatch this branch introduced.
The comparison now runs on normalized labels, the message still prints them as written, and a frame genuinely mixing HR with LOG_HR is refused as before. All three are asserted. Worth noting for the record: this finding fell outside the diff, so it produced no review thread and my merge gate, which counts unresolved threads, scored the PR as clean. I have added a check for |
Two summaries reported something better than what they were given.
A worst-case Rhat that filtered out the worst case
check_diagnostics()and the printed fit summary both take a maximum Rhat, andboth filtered the column with
is.finite()first. An Rhat ofInfis aparameter whose chains did not mix at all, which is the single worst outcome
either line exists to show.
c(1.001, Inf)beforec(1.001, Inf)afterA genuinely absent value is a different case: a constant generated quantity
legitimately has no Rhat. Those are now counted and named rather than dropped
from a statistic that calls itself the maximum. The tail-ESS block a few lines
below already did exactly this, and Rhat and bulk ESS now follow it through one
resolver shared with the print method, so a printed summary and a warning
cannot disagree about the same fit.
An unknown transition count read as a clean one
Divergence and treedepth counts went through a reader that maps anything
unusable to
0. The chain counts guard that separately; these two did not, and0is the answer that says the sampler behaved. A fit whose sampler behaviorwas never reported passed the check in silence. It now says the count is
unavailable and that the check did not happen.
A forest null taken from the axis instead of the measure
mlumr_forest()usedref_line <- if (isTRUE(log_x)) 1 else 0. That agreeswith the measure whenever a ratio is drawn on a log axis and disagrees
otherwise:
effect = "HR", linear axiseffect = "RR"/"TR"/"RMSTR", linear axiseffect = "RMSTD"/"MD"/"LOR"/"LOG_HR"effectcolumn,log_x = TRUEeffectcolumn, linear axisref_line.null_ref_for()already existed for this, and its comment says it is "sharedby both forest plots so a measure added to
.ratio_measuresis right in everyfigure at once". That was true of one of them.
Verification
measure the change rather than the absence of a new function. The diagnostic
tests error there instead, since the helpers are new; the behavioral claim
they rest on is asserted directly against
.finite_numeric_values(), whichstill exists and still drops
Inf.lintrclean on every changed file, matching baseline.ESS, whose absence remains a message rather than a warning, so that intent is
preserved; its fixture also set the transition counts to
NA, which is thecase this changes, so that now has a test of its own.
