105+ We find that the PHA and NEO completeness are very similar for a given simulated survey and set of discovery criteria, as shown in \autoref {fig:neopha }. The analysis of the various observing run strategies (singles, pairs, triples or quads of visits) described in the previous section thus applies to PHAs as well; while changing the discovery metric to triplets or quads significantly decreases completeness, simply changing the survey strategy has a softer effect, most likely due to current limitations of the simulated surveys.
