15. The issue of the surface tension is quite controversial (see discussions in Refs. 16-22). Fortunately, existing estimates (Ref. 5) and experimental data (Ref. 23) show that even when accounted for, this contribution is not important.

24. This can be compared to stretching a spring by certain amount Δl (the geometrical condition) and then finding the applied force, versus applying a prescribed force to the spring (the physical restriction) and the measuring its extension.

31. More consistent study of elastic phenomena at such short distances would require accounting for both nonuniformity of elastic moduli and for their nonlocality (Refs. 32-34) (see also similar predictions for the interfacial tension, Ref. 35), which implies that their behavior on short length scales differs from the macroscopic limit even for uniform membranes, as has been recently observed experimentally (Refs. 36, 37).
