When choosing the minimizer, the minimize method will not have the uncertainties computed. With the least-squares method, the uncertainties will be calculated using the jacobian (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42388139/how-to-compute-standard-deviation-errors-with-scipy-optimize-least-squaresif you), we opt for a more computationally heavy method to allow solutions even when the Jacobian is close to degenerate. The uncertainties are not renormalised by the reduced chi^2, however, we have the chi2 and the dof computed so that the uncertainties can be renormalised post-hoc. When using emcee the 16th and 84th percentiles of the sample are reported, the mean deviation from the 50th percentile is reported as the 1s.d.
It is reported that the error estimations are wrong: empty when directly using minimiser, way underestimated when using MCMC.
