{1 1 1} replicates the symmetry operations, and some of those might bring
an atom into another unit cell. Particularly with molecular compounds, we
see this all the time, and it is what people want.
You can specify PACKED to get only atoms within one unit cell, although
then atoms that are at vertices or on faces of the unit cell are
duplicated. You could try that. PACKED by itself implies {1 1 1} PACKED:
load t.pdb PACKED
load t.pdb {2 2 2} PACKED
But I'm guessing you will not like that!
Would you say the same about the atoms on the edges? They are in other unit
cells as well.
There's probably no adequate solution I can offer you.
