yeah my understanding is that for approximating multi-electron equations via the canonical algorithm you essentially treat the wavefunction for each individual electron as independent, so the final equation ends up being a linear combination of those wave functions, but of course you lose being able to model things like van der waals forces because each electron's orbital can't be affected by any others in this model

(I hacked on a bunch of computational chemistry stuff in undergrad and I never understood this stuff as well as I'd have liked but it was supremely cool to do Actual Science instead of fake computer "science" for a bit)
