Loo: calculating point-wise log-lik when using data augmentation for censored observations

The model particulars are described in another post here, although I don’t think they are particularly relevant to the question at hand.

The only thing I can think of is that for some censored data points, the log-lik will be zero or very close to zero (probability 1.0) for most if not all samples. Not sure whether that will be a problem for the loo procedure, but I guess I’ll find out.
