Figure caption: Summary of constraints on our 200 fiducial GRMHD simulations. Color indicates combined EHT constraints apart from structural or flux variability, and hatching indicates combined non-EHT constraints. For each constraint category and parameter combination, we delineate whether all of the three simulation codes run with those parameters pass, whether only some pass, or whether none pass. These exclusions leave only two models, each a MAD with prograde spin, 30° inclination, and R high = 160. For details, see Paper V.
