Comment:

 Great! I'm going to merge and deploy this change in the next 1--2 hours
 when the current background update is done. It will first run tonight.

 Before we rewrite the censorship detector in Java, I'd like to make
 another change: let's replace the median and IQR calculation with
 something more standard from SciPy/Numpy. I'll do that, but I'd like to
 wait for the first patches to #26035 before making this change. Once the
 Python code implements exactly what we'd like to specify for Sponsor 13
 deliverable 2, we can easily rewrite it in Java. Setting to
 needs_information for the blocking on #26035 part.
