Is there any other way to pool estimates other than using mi estimate?

If you run your analysis on m=0 then you do not use any imputed data.
-flongsep- defines one of four ways to store/handle your multiply
imputed data (-help mi set-). Specifically, when using the -flongsep-
format, M+1 data files are stored separately. For example, if you
impute 3 data sets (M=3) you save separate files for m=0, m=1, m=2,
and m=3. For cases without imputed values m1=m2=m3=m0 because of the
full long format. For cases with imputed data, the values vary across
m1 to m3 and are missing in m0. In any case, this is not affecting the
way estimates are combined after running an estimation command.
