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.
