Regarding refinement against all reflections: the main goal of our work is to provide the best possible representation of the experimental data in the form of the structure model. Once the structure building and refinement process is finished keeping the Rfree set separate does not make sense any more. Its role finishes once the last set of changes have been done to the model and verified ...
