#Stata question about #margins. Cross-posted at https://www.statalist.org/forums/forum/general-stata-discussion/general/1752205-margins-after-melogit-statistically-different-but-point-estimate-of-one-margin-inside-confidence-interval-of-another

As described at the above link, I am estimating `margins` (predicted probabilities) of a #multilevel #logistic regression. I am finding that in some cases the point estimate of one group is inside the confidence interval of the other group, but a test nonetheless indicates a statistically significant difference between the two groups. Any insights on this seeming paradox would be appreciated.

So let's continue with more new features in #Stata #v18. An important update is to causal inference methods, namely the newer #DID estimations.

In case you guys don't know, I have been diligently following the developments and tracking them here:
