Exoplanet system families mix birth-environment physics with detection bias.
Both Effects
The strongest synthesis treats the families as a mixture of formation physics and survey selection. Environmental studies report architecture differences associated with stellar clustering, while host-star mass and metallicity also track system properties. Transit and Doppler detection impose geometry- and signal-dependent filters, so the observed split cannot be read as a direct census of intrinsic architectures.
Selection Effects
A selection-centered reading warns that apparent families may partly reflect how planets are found and classified. Transit surveys favor favorable orbital orientations and detectable planet-to-star size contrasts, while Doppler surveys favor suitable mass, period, and stellar-noise conditions. Results involving singles, multis, and planet ordering need completeness and detection-bias corrections before being assigned to formation environments.
