I checked this.
Using the generic MC the lepton ID efficiency goes from 60% to 40% with
respect to the cocktail one.

I discovered that this is probably due to a bias in the mes fit with no
cut applied (very low purity<20%). This is an example of mes fits with no
additional cut required, just the request of vcb (top) or vub event
(bottom):

Then, I calculated the efficiency with different levels of purity

b->u

b->c

and the intpur dependence is striking. With a int purity >30% it starts to
be stable.


The ratio (pstar factor) looks always stable, as shown in

and then I conclude that we are ok.
