Right, it's true. But, for example, if I have 8 ligands covalently bonded I
would like to consider these 8 ligands as it were only one ligand and search
on the mmCIF dictionary for a ligand that represents the 8 ligands together.
Because by searching an ID for each ligand separately I wouldn't be
considering the covalent bonds between them.
