Competing Interests

All authors are occasionally hired as experts for giving talks or workshops about risk assessment. Typically, this is done as part of the authors' regular university duties (e.g. teaching students) but depending on the nature of the task and constituents, such activities are sometimes commissioned with remuneration extraneous to their academic salaries. This does not alter the authors' adherence to all the PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
