I know, the documentation states that assymptotic exactness cannot be guaranteed if using parallel=True. What I wasn't quite clear on is how severe the consequences of this are. Is this a case of potentially introducing a small error or is this a case of "we have no idea what the answer will say"? If the latter is the case what would a sensible use case be for switching parallel to True? (I am trying to use it to calculate missing edges which even with parallel takes very long for the network so I fear without it it would just not be feasible.)
