ok, what I said may have been imprecise, the analytical correction is a
separate step, but the cost of switching on the restraints while the
ligand fully interacts is yet another third leg of your cycle that indeed
needs a numerical result from MD simulations. I dont think it is a
contribution that can typically be neglected, unless you set very weak
restraints.
