Many small molecule crystallographers seem to refine on intensity and so
avoid need this procedure. Towards the end of the recent thread "Wilson
plot from truncated.mtz" it had seemed like this forum was starting to
see that light?
In short - if your observations are supposed to be noisy in the
"plus_or_minus sigma" sense then the peaks which are much less than the
sigma should come out negative almost half of the time. Truncate would
appear to be for the case where you want an estimate of the true
magnitude of the structure factor, "F", and not your experimental data.
