I think that is the problem. If you take the closest lipids, I fear that
in one direction (let's say y) it will be a bit too few, in particular as
you divide the thickness of the y-layer by 2, as you put part of the lipids
at +y with respect to the protein and part of them at -y.

So, in particular in that y-direction I would like to take into account a
lipid and its periodic copy to avoid any discontinuities for analysis.
