72. A pseudopotential is undefined until a specific, physically motivated and deterministic choice is made. This is no different than the choice of tetrahedral versus octahedral ionic radii in inorganic chemistry, or the choice of a particular electronegativity scale: it is non-unique until one makes a motivated choice that renders it unique. The success or failure of the choice of a chemical scale is decided by testing its usefulness.
