However, their comparison with theory is dominated by theoretical uncertainties. Thus, compared to Marciano's ``best bets," they represent weaker arguments for building a new facility.} \@doendnote{endnote140}{Despite the increased cooling efficiency at low muon momentum, simulations of an entire muon production section and cooling channel suggest that momenta near the ionization minimum represent the global optimum for Neutrino Factory performance.}
