    The two base years overlap for 41 months (Jan 2008 – May 2011). Over those months the ratio between them runs from 0.296 to 0.299; the splice uses 0.297. Compared with LK.CPI.CCPI.2006-07.HEADLINE.M.

    Splice overlap: 0.296 and 0.299, difference 0.003.

    41 overlapping months 2008-01-01..2011-05-01, factor 0.297022

    Every splice reports the spread of its overlapping-month ratios so the chain factor can be judged. A few per cent is normal.
