   - **Large array_types of number_types** create issues with uploading to the ISS provider if the points are too dense.
     - Consider keeping arrays of numbers from being overly large.
+  - **PBS Dose Calculation Functions** accept the input type of proton_degrader, which allows for the use of a variable thickness range-compensator.
+    - Currently only constant thickness range-shifters are validated for clinical use.
