Yes, the automatic twinning detection is one of the weak points of the
current Table 1 program (and the enhanced MolProbity validation in Phenix);
a more flexible approach will be available soon.  However, if you have a
case where you're certain the structure is twinned (and these R-factors do
support that hypothesis) but Phenix is missing it, we'd be interested in
seeing the model and data.  It may just be a limitation of the twinning,
but occasionally our code trips on corner cases, or it could be something
stranger misdiagnosed as twinning.
