From a more theoretical point of view, triplet instabilities are intimately linked to the stability analysis of restricted closed-shell solutions at the HF \cite{Seeger_1977} and KS \cite{Bauernschmitt_1996} levels, hampering the applicability of TD-DFT for popular range-separated hybrids containing a large fraction of long-range exact exchange.

While TD-DFT with range-separated hybrids can benefit from tuning the range-separation parameter(s) as a mean to act on the triplet instability, \cite{Sears_2011} BSE calculations do not offer this pragmatic way-out since the screened Coulomb potential that builds the kernel does not offer any parameter to tune.

Benchmark calculations \cite{Jacquemin_2017b,Rangel_2017} clearly concluded that triplets are notably too low in energy within BSE and that the use of the Tamm-Dancoff approximation was able to partly reduce this error.
