21. The main condition to establish AF dimer+CO is that the number of holes in the chains per formula unit is close to 6. This requirement is satisfied according to Ref., while it cannot be reconciled with the hole distribution suggested in Ref..

27. The measurement of ac conductivity for y=0.55 and 1.6 was done at 250 and 200 K, respectively, due to too high conductivity values causing too low transmittivity of prepared plane-parallel samples.
28. While Drude response is clearly visible at RT for y=0.55 (E∥c) and y=1.6 (E∥a) it is masked by the phonon tail for y=1.6 (E∥c).
29. We remind that only at low temperatures one standardly expects that due to frozen charge carriers a low-energy phonon contribution prevails over electronic hopping.
