Parameter space explored to explain a subset of counterexample sources (morphologically) that deviate from the optical (host galaxy axes)-radio (jet propagation direction) axes traits.

Notes. Two additional simulations beyond those listed in Table 1 were performed to investigate the possible origins of the counterexample sources. In these cases, the jet power was kept fixed (consistent with Table 1), while intrinsic jet parameters were varied: a slightly heavier jet (“HeavyJ”) was introduced, requiring corresponding reductions in jet radius and propagation speed to maintain the same power (Eq. 7). Both simulations were run with a magnetization parameter of σ = 0.01 and the jet radius has been resolved using five cells.
