Hey! And thank you

1) Absolutely agree. The current approach for the boundaries is a quick hack until I can implement something more sophisticated. Safe to say an update is already in the works that adds a MW value and more insight into the state of each boundary (and is also more accurate in general)

2) "Please don't tell me that we are paying batteries to _not_ export" – it's actually the opposite, the batteries paid to not export (at least today). You can dig into this yourself via the Detailed System Prices dataset [0] and looking at one of the batteries on the sell stack (eg. KILSB-5)

Unfortunately you've got at least one negative wrong in this sentence and I'm still confused, and the linked dataset is currently blank?

Sorry for complaining, this is a great website!
