103. We refrain from renormalizing the RI to accommodate the negative values as this type of normalization would depend on the flake size and will thus limit the generality of the RI definition. Furthermore, keeping the normalization in its present form allows a direct comparison with high symmetry stacking modes of the infinite periodic bilayer system that is desirable for gaining physical intuition.
