Predicted planet radius distribution using our conservative detection model where we required at least three transits and a combined S/N of 10. This figure is the counterpart of Figure 5, but using our conservative detection model. The total number of planets shown is 2609, which is roughly 60% lower than our standard detection model. This change is most significant for small planets, which saw a factor of two decrease. We have intentionally changed the color scheme from previous figures to differentiate between standard and conservative models.
