I'm doing a random forest survival analysis for a school project and I'm confused about the C-index output that I'm getting relative to the Requested performance error. Shouldn't my C-index get higher the lower my Requested performance error is? It seems intuitively that it should be around 1 - the Requested performance error, but the scores are the same. Am I misinterpreting this? I'm using the codes listed in this link as a guide: https://www.randomforestsrc.org/articles/survival.html
