The physics of the outer layers of a star are not well understood but these layers make a major contribution to the large separation. We quantify this using stellar models and show that the contribution ranges from 6\% from the outer 0.1\% of the radius to 30\% from the outer 5\%. and therefore argue that the large separation should not be used as a constraint on surface layer independent model fitting. The mass and luminosity are independent of the outer layers and can be used as constraints, the mass being determined from binarity or from surface gravity and radius. The radius can be used as a constraint but with enhanced error estimates. We briefly consider the determination of the large separation for $\alpha$ Cen A and find that mass derived from surface gravity is closer to the binary mass than that derived from the large separation.
