As noted in Remark 3 of Wang et al. (
2022), Equation (2) implies that the treatment selection mechanism cannot follow the logistic or other nonlinear form, except in the case that
is independent of U , which would imply that U is not a confounder. (Tangentially, we note that in the highly simplified case in which there are no measured covariates (
) and U is binary, the logistic regression model could satisfy Equation (2) as one can solve for the model parameters so that
