profile(flow, **kwargs)
This is a ridiculous hack because the profile doesn't depend on self at all. So let's make it non-ridiculous by defaulting to self as ref_quantity, so it's not TOTALLY ridiculous
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
flow |
|
required | |
kwargs |
|
{}

Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
