We are using the maximum likelihood targets described here:
Lunin, V.Y., Afonine, P.V. & Urzhumtsev, A. (2002). Acta Cryst. A58, 270-282.
Lunin, V.Y. & Skovoroda, T.P. (1995). Acta Cryst. A51, 880-887.

Decrease. But see below...

Yes, that's right.

The x-ray target may go up since we refine x-ray target + geometry
target. The total will always go down (that's how the minimizer
works), but an individual contribution may go up a bit.
