I see. I suggest to run two refinements:
- with NCS and "optimize_wxc=true optimize_wxu=true" options, and
- without NCS and with "optimize_wxc=true optimize_wxu=true".
This will make it weight-choice independent and so easier to understand.
Otherwise, since NCS term is included in weights calculation, using or
not using NCS may change the X-ray/Restrains weight which may have
larger effects than using/not using NCS itself.
