Illustration of the two approaches to candidate priors P(O) assumed in this manuscript: identical and inverse. The former assumes an identical prior for every galaxy with θi < 10ϕ or within the 99.9% localization error of the FRB. The latter adopts the inverse of the estimated chance probability Pc of these galaxies, which is equivalent to asserting the prior is proportional to the integrated probability that the other sources are all chance coincidences.
