Higher-Mach-number self-similar shock solutions in failed supernovae are unstable and strengthen asymptotically above a critical neutrino mass-loss threshold, explaining greater ejection in red supergiants versus compact progenitors.

Black hole progenitors are predominantly hot and blue at pre-collapse, often Wolf-Rayet stars luminous in ultraviolet, with only a minority as red supergiants, and a direct-collapse rate of about 0.4 per century for a galaxy with 1 solar mass per year star formation.
N6946-BH1's remnant is roughly 10 times fainter than its progenitor while stellar merger remnants are 10-100 times brighter, and asymmetric dust cannot explain the difference.
