Separations and magnitude differences of the binaries in our sample, subdivided by the detection pipeline. There are no near-equal-brightness binaries at wider separations, even though they are abundant below 0﹩\mathop{.}\limits^{{\unicode{x02033}}}﹩4. The shaded region corresponds to the detection bias discussed by C. Littlefield et al. (2024). The properties of binary host stars do not correlate with the detection pipeline.
