Does one regard the metal atom in a metalloprotein as being part of the protein?
If so, a shared metal could occupy a special position in a dimer for example.

SHELXL also expects that the occupancy of a fully occupied atom on a
threefold axis should be set at 1/3, and will generate this automatically
if necessary. It will also generate automatically the necessary
constraints for the x, y and z parameters (and for the Uij if the atom is
anisotropic).
No disorder is involved.
