Andrew,

Every approach is flawed.

The goal is not to be flawless, but to generate useful information in the
most efficient way possible. In some cases, that could involve "turning
down the sun".

"All models are wrong, but some are useful." -- George E.P. Box

The GeoMIP G3 and G4 experiments involve aerosols, but are more difficult
simulations for many groups to perform.
