Reddening maps of the LMC and SMC are produced via SED fitting of RGB stars from SMASH and VMC photometry, yielding mean E(B-V) of 0.076 mag and 0.058 mag with relative spatial structure stable across three stellar atmosphere models but absolute values differing by up to 0.03 mag.

Monte Carlo tests with mock clusters show that fitting Gaia-like photometry with isochrones from different stellar codes produces biases of 0.6 to 1.5 in ΔY/ΔZ unless identical models are used for generation and fitting.

A critical analysis of main-sequence fitting in open clusters to derive the helium-to-metal enrichment ratio $\Delta Y/\Delta Z$
Monte Carlo tests with mock clusters show that fitting Gaia-like photometry with isochrones from different stellar codes produces biases of 0.6 to 1.5 in ΔY/ΔZ unless identical models are used for generation and fitting.
