Comment on "Redundancy Channels in the Conformal Bootstrap" by S. R. Kousvos and A. Stergiou

Recent work by Kousvos and Stergiou criticises our work with Zhong Ming Tan [arXiv:1505.00963]. The issue is CFT scaling dimension computations in perturbative Renormalization Group. We identified operators whose correlation functions differ by contact terms. This is allowed because CFT only describes correlation functions away from coincident points. They instead renormalize the contact terms, which are eventually dropped. Our way is not only correct, but preferable as it operates with the minimal set of quantities.
