Caption: Figure 5.

Median retrieved parameters and 1σ errors across the population. Only parameters from the base retrieval are displayed (HAT-P-11b, WASP-12b, and WASP-121b contain additional parameters in their retrievals). The retrieval setup of each planet can be found in Table 3. Results for each wavelength range, ﹩{\lambda }_{\min }﹩ = 0.3 μm, ﹩{\lambda }_{\min }﹩ = 0.6 μm, and ﹩{\lambda }_{\min }﹩ = 1.1 μm, are displayed in purple, blue, and orange, respectively. Planets are displayed in order of their retrieved Rayleigh enhancement factor, ﹩\mathrm{log}a﹩, with the planet with the lowest value of ﹩\mathrm{log}a﹩ at the top.
