I am bowing out of this discussion with apologies for any confusion that
I caused.
I have realized that there may be a generational difference in
understanding the term "map coefficient" (or else my poor brain is just
not functioning as well as it ought to). I thought that the proposal was
to require depositing the equivalent of a ccp4 *.map file, i.e. the
real-space side of the Fourier transform. I see now that people are
using "map coefficient" to mean "weighted F", which was not what I originally
understood.
please carry on!
