-  * What is nice is that we are able to couple these random variables whereas their densities are known only up to a multiplicative constant. I  wonder if it is better ​to couple in that way: $\pi(y) \propto Q(x,\rmd y) \alpha_{MH}(x,​y)$ and $\tilde \pi(y) \propto Q(x',​\rmd y) \alpha_{MH}(x',​y)$. Up to some tricks, can we deduce a way of coupling two MH starting from different initial distributions,​ maybe with delayed coupling? Can we compare it to the coupling of Pierre Jacob et al.?+  * What is nice is that we are able to couple these random variables whereas their densities are known only up to a multiplicative constant.
