Cross-Source DFT Agreement

How well independent DFT databases agree on the thermodynamics of FeMnO3. Tight agreement means computed properties can be trusted without re-running calculations.

Only 1 independent DFT source (materials_project) reports a hull energy for FeMnO3, so cross-source agreement can't be assessed yet.
