Time evolution of the metallicity of accreted gas. The blue line indicates our fiducial Zaccretion model, where it increases from Zproto at M⋆ = M1 to Zacc, max at M2 followed by a metal-poor accretion phase. The black line indicates the simplified model (model M2var; see Fig. A.4), which has the same M2 and the total amount of accreted metals as the blue line. If this M2 value is lower than 0.96 M⊙ (which approximately corresponds to when the radiative core develops), then these two models lead to the same Zcenter.
