[SciPy-User] Why not filtfilt in decimate function?

[Joscha Schmiedt]

Dear list,

I just noticed that the decimate function from scipy.signal does not use
filtfilt to filter the signal but lfilter and thereby introduces nasty phase
shifts. Is there a reason why this is done?

Kind regards,
Joscha
