Numbers after weight optimization look ok to me. Data of 2.3A resolution
may not be able to tell you the difference between bond lengths varying
by a tiny fraction of angstrom. So what you get is dictated by the Fobs
data.
For more details about weight optimization see "Improved target weight
optimization in phenix.refine" here: http://phenix-online.org/newsletter/
