Description

The default configs all use O3 times. With O4a, and soon O4b, data being public, we should change to use times from those observing runs. The O4a sensitivity estimates for other searches are here. It looks like the file format has changed a bit from O3, so we'll need to adjust how we read in the data for plotting.

Research direction

Locate the default configuration files and the O3 data-reading path used for plotting, then inspect the linked Zenodo O4a sensitivity estimates and compare their format with the current input. Done means the defaults use O4a observing times and the plotting workflow successfully reads and displays the new data format.
