We clarify some analytical expressions existing in the literature, • Within the correct formulae we conclude that there is no need for an ad hoc improvement on the opposite to the title paper, • We highlight the symmetry properties of the function to be integrated in order to agree with the usual assumptions made to derive the Kramers-Kronig relations, • The analytical formula we provide may be used to increase the accuracy of the "Poor Man's Kramers-Kronig analysis" method and the "Kramers-Kronig constrained variational analysis" method.
