I guess these differences in I/Ic are not very significant, since the
exact same montmorillonite entry is in ICSD, from which you can export the
CIF directly. (In fact I doubt that there are any AMCSD entries that are
not also in ICSD).
Clays, micas etc are highly layered structures, often with variable
amounts of intercalates, and usually not well ordered. They are therefore
difficult to model, so the profile fit will be relatively poor.
