After publication of [Opt. Express 32, 30124 (2024)], the authors noticed that in Figs. 8, 10, 12, and 14, the plot labels for "Diattenuator Orientation" and "Circular Diattenuation" were swapped. The values displayed on the figures are correct; however, the middle subfigure should be labeled, "Circular Diattenuation," and the middle right subfigure should be labeled, "Diattenuator Orientation." This does not affect the main conclusions of the paper in any way, since the paper focuses primarily on retardance.
