The DD option and the figure shown below are inconsistent.

Because dynamical_decoupling.skip_reset_qubits defaults to False, the XX sequence is also applied to q2.
To match the figure, dynamical_decoupling.skip_reset_qubits=True should be specified.

In general, setting dynamical_decoupling.skip_reset_qubits=True provides better accuracy because it avoids applying DD sequences to reset (clean) qubits, as illustrated in the figure. However, the default value remains False for backward compatibility.
