 From this I understand that ADMConstraints should not be used with ML. 
In order to prevent accidental use, would it be possible to insert a 
parameter check in ML that warns against ADMConstraints? Or at least a 
note in the README file and documentation of ADMConstraints?

I believe the situation is that ML_BSSN and ML_ADMConstraints give consistent values for the constraints, but ADMConstraints gives results which differ by orders of magnitude.  Note that this occurs where there is matter.  Is it possible that ADMConstraints does not use the correct matter-coupling mechanism for the stress-energy tensor?
