Currently, rescaling is done by multiplying the transition rates by the total number of states, transient + absorbing. It might be better to rescale by the number of transient states only, since this is what really contributes to first-passage times, i.e., the number of states you have to pass through (approx.) before you reach an absorbing state (which no longer contributes to FPT).
