\paragraph{}
Along the main sequence, the authors also find no significant difference between their parallel S+S binaries and the full BSE run as long as there is no mass-transfer between the components. However there are difference in oribital evolution when a large fraction of mass is lost in the giant stage. In general, going up the main sequence, the differences between S+S and the BSE code increase and only BSE can create deeply eclipsing Algol systems.
\paragraph{}
Because the authors assume that most eclipsing binaries with periods in the 0.2 to 20 day range and eclipse-depths greater than 0.1 magnitude were detected by Hipparcos photometry they performed a crude comparison at galactic latitudes lower than 30 degrees. They found reasonable agreement although the software predicted more short-period pairs than were observed by Hipparcos.
