    • I just upgraded from skan v0.8 or 0.9 and my measurements are slightly different. What gives?
    • What’s unique_junctions or junction_mode?
    • Why are coordinates floats and not integers?
    • Why is coordinate (0, 0, 0) always in my coordinate list? / Why is the coordinate array larger than the number of nodes in the pixel graph?
