To a significant extent, this older discussion was hindered by inability to reach the CBS limit for systems with more than a few atoms, or to obtain reliable ab initio benchmarks. Those problems have been overcome, and correlated wave function benchmarks clearly indicate that CP-corrected and uncorrected energies converge to the CBS limit from opposite directions. We regard this as an incompleteness problem rather than an "overcorrection", because the CP-corrected results extrapolate more smoothly to the CBS limit, resulting in smaller error bars. (This behavior was originally predicted by Dunning. 81 ) Half-CP results converge even faster, and other molecular properties also converge more smoothly with CP correction than without. Reported cases where uncorrected results converge faster to the CBS limit, or where the basis-set error (relative to the CBS limit) is larger with CP correction, typically involve systems where the difference between the CPcorrected and uncorrected results is quite small, whereas the systematic study in Ref. 50 considered a wide range of cases. As such, we conclude that there is nothing in wave function theory to suggest that CP correction is ill-advised.
