I agree on your second point that you’d want to adjust all the models, I was just hoping you could give me a reference. My thought is that depression removing 0.65 of someone’s happiness for a year (i.e. going from 8⁄10 to a 2.5/10) seems about right on the life satisfaction scores. This means that everything else should have a much lower comparative weight, rather than making depression worse than death. For instance, maybe blindness really has a weight of 0.1 rather than 0.5 as I believe it does at present.
