Hi Jon,

this is an interesting link. The quality of the absolute scales can be
benchmarked with small molecule data. As F000 for X-ray diffraction is
the sum of electrons, it can be conveniently determined from counting
when each atom is actually modelled. 
Maybe this has been done, I only read the introduction.

Best,
Tim
