Beyond the lack of covariance, the pseudo-tensor does not have well-defined transformation properties: it is not a geometric object.
“As I will mention in Section 5.2, beyond the lack of covariance, the problem is also that the pseudo-tensor does not have well-defined transformation properties: for example, it is not a geometric object, in the sense of Anderson (1967: pp. 14-16, 424), Kucharzewski and Kuczma (1964: pp. 15-18), and Trautman (1965: p. 84-87):”
From Noether's Theorems and Energy in General Relativity (2021) · cites this paper as Anderson (1967: pp. 14-16, 424)
Pseudo-tensors are not geometric objects.
“This worry is, of course, in the neighbourhood of a closely related one: namely, that pseudo-tensors are not geometric objects 118 (see Anderson (1967: p. 424) and Duerr (2019a: Section 3.3)).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
