It does, but it's used only for the weight calculation.

Yes, I had to change the SD_TO_DIST_RATIO constant from 1.0 to 1.4 to
get a similar response in the simulations.

Ok, so for 1.25 I think this is good enough, if someone will have a
better idea how to do the weighting, it can be implemented later.
