We further restrict our discussion to only the incentivized version of the DEEP method, as developed by us, and its comprehensive (not reduced) and optimal format [DEEP 12 4 ] 4 Section 3 contains information about how to calculate the number of potential option combinations for the different DEEP (choice) versions.…”
