22. Note that our model only considers the presence of one drop in the system, whereas it is possible to have more than one drop inside the volume. In fact, this possibility was contemplated in ref 14, where it was shown that it leads to better agreement between the predictions of the model and the simulations, in the transition region between the drop and the vapor, where the effect of these fluctuations is more important.
