I have tried some CausalForestDML model and other DML model, I expect that model with better score shall be better, and the predicted ATE will be closer to ground truth ATE.
Here are some results:

How can I use it on model selection? and if there are any method to evaluate if model is good enough?

Research direction

Start by reviewing the reported CausalForestDML.score results and the attached comparison. Establish whether the score is intended for DML model selection and what evidence would show that it tracks ATE accuracy; no files or tests are named, and completion would require resolving the evaluation guidance or behavior.
