Helili and Kerim report a study on the aromaticity of [n]Circulene ( n = 3–8), using topology‐based methods (TRE). Their assumptions regarding the geometries of the systems are that (a) the systems are planar and (b) all the six‐membered rings have C‐C bond lengths equal to that of benzene. This comment shows that these geometrical assumptions are too crude to allow correct estimations of the aromaticity.
