This is a Categorical-DQN legacy, which was just "transposed" in QR-DQN.
In contrast to Categorical-DQN, QR-DQN set fixed probabilites and learnable locations (a.k.a diracs).

Thanks for pointing this out! This is indeed semantically incorrect and is mostly a consequence of QR-DQN inheriting from Rainbow (which does expect probabilities).
The probabilities field you rightly point out as not being probabilities is in fact not used at all in QR-DQN.

rightly

Yeah, I noticed it too, after "uptraced" to its caller, and found the strange thing is not used.
To be a little strict, isn't this sort of impreciseness and a misleading to new comings, more or less, I guess?
After all, it is not proper, so I suggest the modification, at least some comment there.
