contents We investigate the ability of Aufbau suppressed coupled cluster theory to act as a post-linear-response correction to widely used linear response methods for electronically excited states. We find that the theory is highly resilient to shortcomings in the underlying linear response method, with final results from less accurate starting points nearly as good as those from the best starting points. This pattern is especially stark in charge transfer states, where the approach converts starting points with multi-eV errors into post-linear-response results with errors on the order of 0.1 eV. These findings highlight the ability of Aufbau suppressed coupled cluster to perform its own orbital relaxations and raise the question of whether initializing it with an orbital relaxed reference is worth the trouble.
