contents Various conventional running coupling prescriptions reproducing $β_ 0$-dependent terms of NLO JIMWLK are reviewed and found to be theoretically inconsistent: the JIMWLK evolution Hamiltonian with running coupling violates the requirement of positive semidefiniteness. This requirement appears to be tightly related to the possibility of having a Langevin formulation for the evolution. We also review the scheme that attributes a part of $β_0$-dependent terms to the DGLAP evolution of the projectile. The remaining $β_0$-dependent contributions sum up into so-called the ``daughter dipole'' prescription, which leads to a manifestly positive semidefinite Hamiltonian.
