And we can use a theoretical AR(1) model to calculate the right hand side.

If $\frac{1}{m} \sum_{t = 1}^m X_t$ is not close to $\psi^(x)$, even for many
If $\frac{1}{m} \sum_{t = 1}^m X_t$ is not close to $\psi^*(x)$, even for many

Thanks @mmcky

On my end it says "Merging is blocked. At least 1 approving review is required by reviewers with write access."

Thanks @mmcky . That makes sense.

But perhaps it's time to unify policies across the repos?
