As far as I can tell:

We have few tests using mesh refinement, so not many tests are affected.
Other than this it was tests in Dissipation. As far as real world
simulations are concerned I expect that every simulation that uses
init_fill_timelevels (ie. very many) will see changes in its evolved
variables (but no changes at t=0 where all timelevels align).
The changes are in the buffer zones only if we have ID where ID values
depend only on position (and not eg on taking finite difference
derivatives) which includes eg. TwoPunctures. All of this is true for
vertex centered data. Cell centered data is different everywhere since
restriction is no longer just a copy operation.

Yours,
Roland
