The available data on $|\Delta B| = |\Delta S| = 1$ decays are in good agreement with the Standard Model when permitting subleading power corrections of about 15% at large hadronic recoil. Constraining new-physics effects in $\mathcal{C}_7$, $\mathcal{C}_9$, $\mathcal{C}_{10}$, the data still demand the same size of power corrections as in the Standard Model. In the presence of chirality-flipped operators, all but one of the power corrections reduce substantially. The Bayes factors are in favor of the Standard Model. Using new lattice inputs for $B\to K^*$ form factors, the evidence of models with chirality-flipped operators increases, but does not outperform the Standard Model. We use the data to further constrain the hadronic form factors in $B\to K$ and $B\to K^*$ transitions.
