Description
there are at least 3 I know off the top of my head:
- the main groupings used by the model data
- in inputs we use 5 year age bands
- we use a different set of groupings in reference/population_by_imd_decile.py
do we need these different groupings, or could we consolidate?

Research direction
Compare the age groupings used by the model data, the five-year bands in inputs, and reference/population_by_imd_decile.py. Start by tracing where each grouping is defined and consumed. Done means the required groupings are documented and a clear decision is recorded on whether they can be consolidated.
