\subsection{Sufficient condition for size consistency}
The basis-set correction is expressed as an integral in real space
\begin{equation}
\begin{multline}
\label{eq:def_ecmdpbebasisAnnex}
\begin{aligned}
& \efuncdenpbe{\argebasis} = \\ & \int \text{d}\br{} \,\denr \ecmd(\argrebasis),
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
\efuncdenpbe{\argebasis} = \\ \int \text{d}\br{} \,\denr \ecmd(\argrebasis),
\end{multline}
where all the local quantities $\argrebasis$ are obtained from the same wave function $\Psi$. In the limit of two non-overlapping and non-interacting dissociated fragments $\text{A}+\text{B}$, this integral can be rewritten as the sum of the integral over the region $\Omega_\text{A}$ and the integral over the region $\Omega_\text{B}$
\begin{equation}
\begin{multline}
\label{eq:def_ecmdpbebasisAB}
\begin{aligned}
& \efuncdenpbeAB{\argebasis} = \\ & \int_{\Omega_\text{A}} \text{d}\br{} \,\denr \ecmd(\argrebasis) \\ & + \int_{\Omega_\text{B}} \text{d}\br{} \,\denr \ecmd(\argrebasis).
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
Therefore, a sufficient condition to obtain size consistency is that all the local quantities $\argrebasis$ are \textit{intensive}, i.e. that they \textit{locally} coincide in the supersystem $\text{A}+\text{B}$ and in each isolated fragment $\text{X}=\text{A}$ or $\text{B}$. Hence, for $\br{} \in \Omega_\text{X}$, we should have
\efuncdenpbeAB{\argebasis} =
\\
\int_{\Omega_\text{A}} \text{d}\br{} \,\denr \ecmd(\argrebasis)
\\
+ \int_{\Omega_\text{B}} \text{d}\br{} \,\denr \ecmd(\argrebasis).

Hence, for $\br{} \in \Omega_\text{X}$, we must have

where the left-hand-side quantities are for the supersystem and the right-hand-side quantities for an isolated fragment. Such conditions can be difficult to fulfill in the presence of degeneracies since the system X can be in a different mixed state (i.e. ensemble) in the supersystem $\text{A}+\text{B}$ and in the isolated fragment~\cite{Sav-CP-09}. Here, we will consider the simple case where the wave function of the supersystem is multiplicatively separable, i.e.

\ket*{\wf{\text{A}+\text{B}}{}} = \ket*{\wf{\text{A}}{}} \otimes \ket*{\wf{\text{B}}{}},

where $\otimes$ is the antisymmetric tensor product. In this case, it is easy to shown that Eqs.~(\ref{nAB})-(\ref{sAB}) are valid, as well known, and it remains to show that Eqs.~(\ref{n2AB}) and~(\ref{muAB}) are also valid. Before showing this, we note that even though we do not explicitly consider the case of degeneracies, the lack of size consistency which could arise from spin-multiplet degeneracies can be avoided by the same strategy used for imposing the energy independence on $S_z$, i.e. by using the effective spin polarization $\tilde{\zeta}(n(\br{}),n_{2}(\br{}))$ or a zero spin polarization $\zeta(\br{}) = 0$. Moreover, the lack of size consistency which could arise from spatial degeneracies (e.g., coming from atomic p states) can also be avoided by selecting the same member of the ensemble in the supersystem and in the isolated fragment. This applies to the systems treated in this work.

\subsection{Intensivity of the on-top pair density and the local range-separation function}
The on-top pair density can be written in an orthonormal spatial orbital basis $\{\SO{p}{}\}$ as
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:def_n2}
n_{2{}}(\br{}) = \sum_{pqrs \in \Bas} \SO{p}{} \SO{q}{} \Gam{pq}{rs} \SO{r}{} \SO{s}{},
\end{equation}
with $\Gam{pq}{rs} = 2 \mel*{\wf{}{}}{ \aic{r_\downarrow}\aic{s_\uparrow}\ai{q_\uparrow}\ai{p_\downarrow}}{\wf{}{}}$. As the summations run over all orbitals in the basis set $\Bas$, $n_{2{}}(\br{})$ is invariant to orbital rotations and can thus be expressed in terms of localized orbitals. For two non-overlapping fragments $\text{A}+\text{B}$, the basis set can then partitioned into orbitals localized on the fragment A and orbitals localized on B, i.e. $\Bas=\Bas_\text{A}\cup \Bas_\text{B}$. Therefore, we see that the on-top pair density of the supersystem $\text{A}+\text{B}$ is additively separable

In conclusion, if the wave function of the supersystem $\text{A}+\text{B}$ is multiplicative separable, all local quantities used in the basis-set correction functional are intensive and therefore the basis-set correction is size consistent.
