Fig 5 shows the evolution of the selected mass bins, while Fig 6 presents the same data on a log scale. For each pair of lines, the eccentricity is the top line while the inclination is the bottom line.  We remind ourselves that the smallest observed radius of a CCKBO is 20km while the most commonly observed radii are 100km. 100km, which means that the low masses (Red) with a radii of 5m are not observable. The breakpoint radius of 69.01km places the breakpoint masses (Blue) within the observable range, along with the high masses (Green).  It can be seen from Fig 5 that after a simulation period of 4000Myrs, the low masses reach an eccentricity of $e=0.00167$ and an inclination of $i=0.000899$, the breakpoint masses reach $e=0.000984$ and $i=0.000582$, the high masses reach $e=0.000374$ and $i=0.000219$
