what makes you think that those values are not correct? Without the weights
(band occupation times a symmetry weight) what you compute is just
<\psi|T|\psi>, for the plane-wave part only (the augmentation terms are
missing)

With wg the kinetic energy is too low, and my understanding is that this is
