Just a quick follow up, the text seems to imply that A7 is used rather than A6. do you know where this is defined in the source code?

Hello,

I'm trying to understand what exactly estimated SCF accuracy is. Does
anyone know where I can find a formal definition of what it is and how
it is being calculated? The structure of the output file implies that it
is related to the Harris-Foulkes and the total energy, but it is clearly
not the trivial difference between these two quantities.

Thanks in advance,
