LGTM.

One question, do we still require a maxwidth parameter for pytket-phir as mentioned in #165?

To me it seems it's being fully handled in pytket and pulled in here with your change in this PR. So perhaps not.

I agree, we probably don't need that parameter now.

Feel free to merge. I can make a new release once CQCL/tket#1456 is merged and released so we can do integration testing.

Thanks, I think it needs one more approval before I can merge it.

I would actually like this to be released before the change in CQCL/tket#1456 is released, if at all possible. This is so that pytket-quantinuum can depend on the new release of pytket-phir, and won't break when the new release of pytket is made.

[qartik]

In that case, let me take it from here and make a new release.

Thanks!
