Can you combine the PHIC and FOM from each of your solutions, then do
the Phase comparison in Clipper utilities checking for alternate
origins? That gives a good indication of what is going on.
Do you have more than one molecule in the asymm unit? You can finish up
with A_phaser matching one symm equiv of B_molrep and B_phaser matching
a different symm equivalent of A_molrep..
