Well there's a blast from the past.

I'll echo what Vikram suggested (and what's in the slides you linked): this
is a good error indicator for refinement, but once you've refined some
number of iterations, then switch to the other for getting an actual error
estimate. This is a very rich subject and we only have some of the basics
in libMesh, but there's definitely lots of options for error indicators for
driving refinement; see the references in the slides. If you're interested
in making contributions, we'd be happy to help guide you.

Best,

Paul
