•We discuss a new shortcoming of the full counting method.•We compare the fractional and the multiplicative counting methods for the 500 Leiden Ranking universities.•Small differences between co-authorship rates and citation impact values generate considerable re-rankings between universities.•We study which type of university benefits from a move from the fractional to the multiplicative counting method. |
