Failed common envelope mergers yield 6-14 solar mass stripped stars consistent with long-lived core He-burning objects that appear single or in wide binaries from hierarchical triples.
Adiabatic mass-loss models for massive helium stars give critical mass ratios 0.7-3.0 on the main sequence and 1.5-27 on the Hertzsprung gap, lowered by winds and adjusted by isotropic re-emission.
Theoretical predictions for local BBH merger rates exceed observations by a factor >10 under conservative SFRD and metallicity assumptions, indicating need for revisions in stellar evolution.
