# the average profile is formed on a grid by superimposition of strong reflections found in step 3. The signal part of the profile is defined by those gridpoints of the average profile that are above a threshold (called "CUT" in XDS.INP).

# not all pixels of a reflection, which would be required to assemble its full profile (whose shape is given by the average profile formed in step 4), may have been observed due to step 1. Therefore, in another pass, for each reflection, the fraction of its profile is calculated. If this fraction is less than a threshold (called "MINPK" in XDS.INP), this reflection will be discarded ("too much overlap"). If it is above MINPK, the observed intensity (from the incomplete profile) is scaled up with the inverse of the fraction. Of course this scaling-up relies on the accuracy of the average profile.
