 * `deltamethod()` can run hypothesis tests on objects produced by the `comparisons()`, `marginaleffects()`, `predictions()`, and `marginalmeans()` functions. This feature relies on `match.call()`, which means it may not always work when used programmatically, inside functions and nested environments. It is generally safer and more efficient to use the `hypothesis` argument.
 * `plot_cme()` and `plot_cco()` accept lists with user-specified values for the regressors, and can display nice labels for shortcut string-functions like "threenum" or "quartile".
