Histogram of ΔBIC values between the Cosmic Shoreline hypothesis and the random hypothesis across Monte Carlo draws for the pcs = 1, 1/2, and 1/3 case, in which planets on the wet side of the Shoreline have pcs chance of having atmospheres. The ΔBIC values are obtained from the optimal strategy determined for each pcs realization.
