The constrained systematic uncertainty in shower cos($\theta$), shown in Supplemental Material Fig. 21, is derived from the systematic covariance matrix (excluding LEE). The $\chi^2$ values shown in Fig. 4 and Table I are calculated using these total covariance matrices, together with the data and constrained predictions from the released signal distributions under the $H_0$ hypothesis (LEE excluded) and $H_1$ hypothesis (LEE included).
