Our model for the active fraction (blue solid line) is compared with several occupation fractions calculated in Ricarte & Natarajan (2018, RN18), Bellovary et al. (2019), Nguyen et al. (2019), and Askar et al. (2021). As expected, our active fractions are lower than most of the predictions for occupation fraction. The blue dotted line indicates the active fraction computed assuming that dwarf galaxies have low-metallicity environments with Z = 0.5 Z .
