27. We use the correct structural data with the O(4) atom at (0.2358, 0.7512, 0.3709). Due to a misprint, Ref. reports a wrong position of this atom, as pointed out in Ref.. The wrong position is also clear from the comparison to the structure determination in Ref..

62. Note that different studies report fairly different magnetic susceptibility data. For example, the susceptibility maximum is around 50 K in Refs. while Ref. reports the maximum at 15 K. In our analysis, we use the single-crystal data from Ref. that look most accurate and reliable.
