Abstract
It is shown that the constrained-component variation generally suggested by Rosicky and Mark is very fundamental, has consistent variational features and reproduces, as a special case, earlier variational results for atomic systems obtained by Drake and Goldman. Numerical merits and demerits of this method are qualitatively assessed.
