Thank you Aidan! All great info. It’s more clear now.
Re status, I thought the docs would correspond the latest version posted in this thread (and it also says payu 1.1.7 at the top of the docs page) so I guess that without browsing the PR’s in the github I wouldn’t have known that the 1.1.7 in the docs is not the same as the 1.1.7 in the Hive. I don’t need it, but it struck me as strange that it doesn’t work. Reassuring to know its because it hasn’t been added yet.
