The forces are also calculated numerically, and a warning is emitted if the numerical derivatives deviate too much from the forces supplied by the user. Since the forces are interpolated, if the numerical derivative is too far from the input what you'd get will be different then expected. You can calculate the derivatives yourself and see where there are deviations.
