Notes. The modes are shown with their respective 68% range. We caution that most of the probability distribution functions (PDFs) are notably nonnormal, often with two dominant peaks at the range limits.

a

Sinusoidal distributions in phase versus final aCBP/eCBP (see, e.g., Figure 5), typically with double-peaked PDFs.

b

P1/P2/P3 have 40%/15%/75% probability to become dynamically unstable within 1 Myr after the CE phase.

c

Given the large parameter space and the associated uncertainties, we consider eCBP > 0.95 as ejection.

d

P1/P2/P3 have 60%/15%/85% probability to become dynamically unstable within 1 Myr after the CE phase.
