EP250304a/SN 2025fhm is presented as a member of an emerging subclass of shocked cocoon-dominated low-luminosity GRB-SNe based on spectral, photometric, and light-curve modeling comparisons to prior events.
Late-time radio rebrightening in SN 2012ap is consistent with either progenitor mass-loss variation producing a density enhancement or an off-axis energetic jet viewed at large angle, potentially reclassifying it as GRB-like rather than weakly engine-driven.
