Why this differs from similar rows?

Alternative fit constraining KS0 to 253 GPa from Brillouin/ultrasonic literature; authors note it deviates systematically from the volume data vs. the unconstrained fit (sibling row).

Evidence from the paper

'Including the KS0 value of 253 GPa in the current analyses, KT0 and K'T0 are determined as KT0 = 250.6 GPa and K'T0 = 4.42(2) (Vinet) and 4.458(15) (third-order Birch-Murnaghan)... However, the combination of small KT0 (~251 GPa) and large K'T0 (~4.4) shows a systematic deviation compared to the original volume data.'
