contents Using only a binary intervention and outcome and the design of the randomization within an experiment, we construct a design-based likelihood of the joint distribution of potential outcomes in the sample -- the numbers of always takers, compliers, defiers, and never takers. We develop a visualization to show that samples with defiers can sometimes generate the data in more ways than samples without, yielding a higher likelihood. This likelihood can vary within the Frechet bounds, even though the traditional likelihood does not. Evidence is weak, but it exists, as we illustrate with health applications and our dbmle package.
