map comparison does not care where maps come from. You give it two maps
on the same gridding (same gridding is essential, obviously) and it
tells you pairs of contouring levels that will show equivalent
representations of your maps.

Normally, you should not use reciprocal spare refinement when working
with cryo-EM maps as your data, cryo-EM map, is in real space. And if
you use real-space refinement it does not matter on what scale the input
map is as it rescales it internally anyway.

I would be interesting to hear about those cases!
