Upper panels: results from a Monte-Carlo simulation where one star is drawn from the Galactic and LMC samples per SpT bin. Probability distributions for the Teff of three representative SpT bins and for the overall slope of the calibration are shown in the left- and right-hand panels. Lower two panels: two possible SpT – Teff relations arising from the simulations (employing the same symbols as in Fig. 1), highlighting the potential consequences of drawing conclusions from small samples.
