The observation-to-parameter ratio is calculated from the number of independent observations divided by four (x, y, z and B) times the number of atoms. With such a modest ratio, we found that the removal of NCS restraints in the refinement led to large differences between working and free R factors, so we kept them until the very last two cycles of refinement. Because the amplitude differences between fourfold NCS-rotated indexes differed by 51–55% owing to the misalignment of NCS axes with respect to the crystallographic axis, the cross-validation set was chosen randomly.
