SF slope (β) binned in the Lbol–ξEdd plane. Each bin contains at least 70 sources. Two distinct trends are visible: (1) at fixed ξEdd, β increases with Lbol and (2) at fixed Lbol, β decreases with increasing ξEdd. This confirms that the Eddington ratio independently modulates the dust torus response.
