It is stated in the article that, “[T]he incorrect long-rangebehavior of the M06-2X functional is due to the fact that thedispersion energy was covered by reparameterization of theexchange functional and not by the correlation one.” Thisstatement is incorrect; this functional describes dispersion-likeinteractions using the correlation (and not the exchange) term.The proper explanation for the poor behavior of this functional atlong-range (in the nonoverlap region) lies in the functional’sinherently local nature.
