Corner plot comparing the forecasted oblateness-favorable population (black) with the currently known confirmed and candidate systems (red). The upper-right panel shows cumulative distributions of G, M, and a. The observed sample is fairly complete at the brightest magnitudes and smallest separations, but shows a growing deficit toward optically fainter stars, lower-mass stars, and larger orbital separations.
