Comparison between the uncalibrated shear profiles for the adapted filter with and without using the bi-variate log-normal approach discussed in Sect. 3.1 The ratio is calculated between the measured shear profiles from T17 for the lower LRG source bin and for sources where several T17 shear grids were averaged, weighted by the n(z) given in Fig. 2. The bi-variate log-normal shear profiles are more consistent with the measured shear profiles and thus (although the shear signals were calibrated) the more accurate model was chosen. Here only the highest and lowest two quantiles are shown because the middle one is to close to zero.
