(From BSE requests)

In doi:10.1007/s00214-010-0846-z Truhlar et co proposed minimally augmented Karlsruhe sets, in which diffuse s and p exponents are added by dividing the smallest existing primitive by 3.0.

This is a mechanical prescription that is very similar to Dunning's scheme, which extrapolates the exponent from the outermost two primitives.

Because the procedure is general, I think it should be implemented in the Python code, not by adding the extended sets. The minimal augmentation routine should take in the spacing and the angular momenta to apply the augmentation for.

A similar scheme is also commonly used for adding extra steep exponents for e.g. magnetic properties, so this should also be possible.
