Hi I think It may be worthwhile submitting your model and data to PDB-REDO to see if (inter alia) you have applied any unconscious bias to your building that has resulted in these outliers, or over- or under-interpreted the data. It’s quick and easy to submit and requires remarkably little effort on your part - another tool to your collection.
