Realized that these are unnecessary. Instead the drop can happen inside the dataloader if we shard it correctly. In the case of lightning or accelerate (a PR making this change is here - axonn-ai/accelerate#2), this sharding will be handled by the backend. For users directly using axonn (like improved-diffusion), we must provide some api for them to configure their dataloaders.
