You'd better!

We normalise the plots to what the generator says: this way we lose no
information and it's possible to generate plots comparing LO and NLO
generation, for example. We couldn't do that the other way around.
rivet-rescale has plenty of room for improvement, though: suggestions
and code are 110% welcome!
