My personal view on this is that one SHOULD not change intdiel or
extdiel in gb, and doing so might be harmful to your health.
The gb parameters are fitted in various ways to reproduce PB results in
WATER, using 1 and 80 for the dielectrics.
While the program allows you to specify those terms separately, the
answers you will get are surely wrong.
How wrong ? not sure, I do not think anyone really tested it, and we
would wellcome someone trying.
From a formal point of view, do not change them !
