Reply to "Comment on `No evidence for orbital loop currents in charge-ordered YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ from polarized neutron diffraction' "
The issues raised in the preceding comment of Bourges et al. [arXiv:1710.08173, Phys. Rev. B 98, 016501 (2018)] are shown to be unfounded. We highlight the complications caused by inhomogeneous beam polarization that can occur when using polarized neutron diffraction to detect small magnetic moments.
