As far as I understand the Jaccard/tanimoto coefficient measures the interaction/union of fingerprint bits and thus is a similarity measure. Why then is 1-tanimoto used as a similarity measure in the "Similarity Search" node, since tanimoto would just be a distance measure then?
Can someone clarify, since using it as a cutoff would affect the outcome of chemical similarity searches? See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaccard_index
