No warnings? That's a surprise! I ran bleeding edge version of vegan (to be
released on Friday) and I got warnings. Perhaps there were so many warnings
that they were not printed individually? Honestly, warnings are commonplace
in radfit() since many of the models often work on the limit of their domain
and try to find coefficients that are close to zero or Infinity. Your case
was an example: the model tried to use a three-parameter exponential
equation draw a line.
