Rationale for constructing dataset V instead of using vetted set R

Explain the rationale for resampling the dataset P (the subset of S with NeoWISE matches removed) to create dataset V rather than using the vetted remainder dataset R, given that V contains a high fraction of star-proximate features and potential artifacts while R is the most aggressively filtered set of unidentified SPFs.

Background

The authors detail that R is the most vetted subset designed to remove catalog objects and scan artifacts, whereas V was resampled from a less filtered parent set and likely includes many star-proximate detections and artifacts.

They explicitly state that it is not clear why the other studies chose to construct and use V instead of R, raising an unresolved question about dataset selection and methodology.
