We have also considered lithium vacancy arrangements confined to (1 × 2 × 1) supercell and performed corresponding calculations, Indeed, we were able to identify a few slightly more stable (1 × 2 × 1) superstructures compared to the (1 × 1 × 1) cell, but these do not alter any conclusions obtained on the basis of (1 × 1 × 1) unit-cell calculations presented in this work.
