Performance metrics of the Model 1 HOD samples for the various configurations defined in Sect. 5.2 as a function of the maximum wave mode k_max, and for the four different redshifts of the samples. The metrics shown are figure of bias (top), goodness of fit (middle), and figure of merit (bottom). Different colours correspond to different model configurations, as listed in the legend. The black dashed line shows as a reference the case in which both tidal bias parameters, $b_{{\mathcal{G}}_2}$ and b_Γ3, are set to 0. The grey bands in the FoB and χ² panels represent the 68% and 95% percentiles of the corresponding distributions. The FoM panels show the figure of merit normalised to the one of the standard run – with all bias parameters free to vary – at k_max = 0.1 h Mpc⁻¹.
