59. For DFT calculations, we refer here to the spin of the Kohn-Sham non-interacting determinant. Spin contamination is always found minimal, i.e., determinants are close to be eigenstates of the total (squared) spin operator, apart from having a well-defined projection.

63. This is likely due to the importance of next-to-nearest neighboring hoppings which are implicitly included in the ab initio calculations and are enough to invalidate Liebs theorem. These effects might show up in this case because of the presence of supernumerary states, as found in the tight-binding Hamiltonian of the molecule when the added H atom is modeled by a vacancy.
