Wondering if anyone has come across relevant papers with simulations or sound rationale about the pitfalls of aggregating different outcome variables under a simplified index? It makes sense that it is a poor idea but would welcome detailed insight to better articulate to others..

Sounds like a brilliant opportunity to talk about Bayes stats. Unfortunately I will not be there but hopefully others will be able to take advantage of this opportunity. Thanks for flagging it here.
