What is your suggestion?

Notes from conversation with @AarynnCarter and @kglidic - we should cross check how the MIRI raw_contrast function handles the coronagraph mask throughput. Odd/unexpected results in plots

Also we should rigorously cross compare normalizations of the mask throughput w.r.t. MIRI abs flux cal https://arxiv.org/pdf/2409.10443 . I'm concerned we may be systematically off by 5-10% if we apply a mask file that is not normalized consistently relative to what the abs flux cal program does.
