Diffraction experiments have moved to ever heavier objects in recent years, now standing at the level of large molecules. Experiments in materials science on the other hand have come down to ever smaller sizes largely due to the success of the scanning tunneling microscope (STM), which allows studying single molecules on surfaces. Since both fields coming from opposite side of the size spectrum are now meeting, there is a need of consistent theories. The simulations presented in the article, which we are referring to, are not consistent with molecular dynamics simulations which are routinely used to interpret STM results. Our comment points this out in detail.
