\alert{The legend of Fig.~2 was incorrect (the curves were mislabeled), but this has now been corrected.
In the corrected Fig.~2 (which is now Fig.~4 in the revised
manuscript), the crossover point occurs for two different states that
belong to two different ensembles. In other words, this point is not

two different ensembles. In other words, this point is not
interesting anymore. The discussion of this Figure has become much more fluid:
when the weight of a state increases, this state is stabilized

energy of the first excited state still decreases when $w_2$ increases}
while the two others increase in energy (as it should).
The discussion regarding this figure has been modified accordingly.}

significant improvement of the ground-state energy while either
improving or not deteriorating too much the excited-state energies, at
least in the weak correlation regime. The main reason is the
destabilization of the ground state that occurs when increasing the
weights assigned to the excited states. This major difference between
practical
conventional DFT (where the correlation energy would be overestimated)
and GOK-DFT calculations is a promising result that is
now highlighted in the revised manuscript.}
