Specifically, ``bin_slop`` specif maximum possible error any pair can have, given as a fraction of the bin size. By bin size, we mean the size in logarithmic units for log binning (i.e., ``log(H) - log(L)`` and linear units for linear binning (i.e., ``H-L``) where ``H`` and ``L`` are the upper -anf lower bounds of the bin. +and lower bounds of the bin. You can think of it as turning all of your rectangular bins into overlapping trapezoids, where ``bin_slop`` defines the ratio of the angled portion to the flat mean width.
