Analyses of upcoming galaxy surveys will require careful modelling of relevant observables such as the power spectrum of galaxy counts in harmonic space $C_\ell(z,z’)$. We investigate the impact of disregarding relevant relativistic effects by considering a model of dark energy including constant sound speed, constant equation of state $w_0$, and anisotropic stress. Here we show that neglecting the effect of lensing convergence will lead to substantial shifts in cosmological parameters such as the galaxy bias $b_0$, the value of the dark energy equation of state today $w_0$, and the Hubble constant $H_0$. Interestingly, neglecting the effect of lensing convergence in this kind of models results in shifting $H_0$ downwards, something which could shed light on the current tension between local and CMB determinations of the Hubble constant.
