Is
ATOMIC_POSITIONS {crystal}
    -0.000054104  -0.000054104   0.002714087
     0.666666666  -0.000054104   0.002714087

    -0.000054104   0.666666666   0.002714087
     0.333387437   0.666666666   0.002714087

equivalent to:

     0.999945896   0.999945896   0.002714087
     1.666666666   0.999945896   0.002714087
     1.333387437   1.333387437   0.002714087
     1.666666666   1.333387437   0.002714087
     0.999945896   1.666666666   0.002714087
     1.333387437   1.666666666   0.002714087

Should my K points and q points grid be shifted now, like

K_POINTS AUTOMATIC
16 16 1   1 1 0



Thank you all for always being helpful.
Best,
