Given that the degree of under - estimation of TCR using the Otto method seems inversely correlated with the NH / SH warming ratio, at least in the
models used in Shindell (2014), it would seem that the rather

earth system indicates a tiny to non-existent underestimation of TCR when using those simple methods (e.g. Otto et al) in the real world.
