Histograms of E(B−V) for the four samples of SNe used in this paper. The filled gray histogram represents just the low‐extinction subset (subset 2). The open boxes on top of that represent SNe that are in the primary subset (subset 1) but excluded from the low‐extinction subset. Finally, the dotted histogram represents those SNe that are in the full sample but omitted from the primary subset. The solid lines drawn over the bottom two panels are a simulation of the distribution expected if the low‐extinction subset of the H96 sample represented the true distribution of SN colors, given the error bars of the low‐extinction subset of each high‐redshift sample.
