Finally, we will also consider the RPA@$GW$@HF scheme which consists in replacing the HF orbital energies in Eq.~\eqref{eq:LR_RPA} by the $GW$ quasiparticles energies.
Several important comments are in order here.
For spin-restricted closed-shell molecular systems around their equilibrium geometry (such as the ones studied here), it is rare to encounter singlet instabilities as these systems can be labeled as weakly correlated.

However, singlet instabilities may appear in the presence of strong correlation, \eg, when the bond is stretched, hampering in particular the calculation of atomization energies. \cite{Holzer_2018}
Even for weakly correlated systems, triplet instabilities are much more common, but triplet excitations do not contribute to the correlation energy in the ACFDT formulation. \cite{Toulouse_2009, Toulouse_2010, Angyan_2011}

Further details about our implementation of {\GOWO} can be found in Refs.~\onlinecite{Loos_2018, Veril_2018}.
Finally, the infinitesimal $\eta$ has been set to zero for all calculations.
The numerical integration required to compute the correlation energy along the adiabatic path [see Eq.~\eqref{eq:EcBSE}] has been performed with a 21-point Gauss-Legendre quadrature.
Comparison with the so-called plasmon (or trace) formula \cite{Furche_2008} at the RPA level has confirmed the excellent accuracy of the present quadrature scheme over $\IS$.

For comparison purposes, we have also computed the PES at the MP2, CC2 \cite{Christiansen_1995}, CCSD, \cite{Purvis_1982} and CC3 \cite{Christiansen_1995b} levels of theory using DALTON. \cite{dalton}
All the other calculations have been performed with our locally developed $GW$ software. \cite{Loos_2018,Veril_2018}
