35. DM interactions in which lepton couplings are dominant are not considered here.
36. The Wilson coefficients of left-handed up and down quarks must be identical at the scale (Equation presented) to respect (Equation presented) gauge invariance.
37. The dimension-6 interactions between DM currents and (Equation presented) can be removed by a field redefinition [69].

56. In the DM axial-current sector there is an analogous mixing between (Equation presented) and (Equation presented). Since this only affects SD scattering, it is not relevant for our study. However, for Majorana DM coupling mostly to heavy quarks it can be an important effect.

64. We point out the remarkable fact that in our case isospin violation is entirely due to SM loops and is present even if the UV complete theory does not violate isospin.
