Description: Treats a through-year assessment system (interims during the
    year feeding a multistage summative) as the unit of analysis. Links
    interims to the summative scale with a latent multivariate normal model
    that carries each score's measurement error forward and handles missing
    interims, estimated by the EM algorithm (Dempster, Laird and Rubin, 1977,
    <doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1977.tb01600.x>) with SQUAREM acceleration
    (Varadhan and Roland, 2008, <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9469.2007.00585.x>);
    simulates cold-start versus prior-informed routing in a
    two-stage multistage test; checks whether priors disadvantage late
    enrollers, low scorers or fast growers; and evaluates decision accuracy
    and consistency of through-year scores against a single summative.
