Github user MLnick commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/15324 I tend to agree with Seth on this - the gaussian case is different enough that it could be separate. Though in terms of the estimator, from a public-facing API perspective it is one param that is unused, so it it's not that big a deal to be unified. However in terms of the model, I really, really don't like the hack of putting the `theta` and `sigma` into one matrix. That leaves us with either creating a new estimator/model combo (let's see how much code duplication that involves), or having a `def getSigma` or a new val `sigma` that is only used for Gaussian. Not super pretty...
