JWST data on LRDs and LBDs show AGN-like excitation, strong Lyα with broad components, and X-ray weakness, implying clumpy or equatorial geometries around growing black holes rather than complete gas envelopes.

ALMA observations and modeling of a z=6.52 lensed quasar indicate AGN dust heating contributes ~13% to sub-mm emission, implying mild overestimation of prior FIR-based star formation rates for high-redshift quasars.
LRDs require Compton-thick gas at moderate metallicity plus high accretion rates producing weak X-rays to explain their non-detection, implying they are not chemically pristine.
