This is NOT satisfactory, Shinkyu Yang, you stated
that Stata's SE are wrong but do not provide any
supporting evidence. This leaves us, who routinely use
-qreg-, wandering if you are correct and Stata is
wrong or what? If Stata is computing incorrect SE, I
and I'm sure Stata, would want to know this.
I think that is a terrible disservice to Stata and
users to state on this list that something is computed
incorrectly without providing adequate evidence.
Best,
Ricardo.
