No kilonova detected from sub-solar GW candidate S251112cm, but coincident IIb supernova SN 2025adtq yields suggestive evidence for the superkilonova channel, though inconclusive after accounting for chance coincidence.
Non-detection of kilonova from S250206dm excludes AT 2017gfo-like events and disfavors NS-BH mergers with mass ratio Q >= 3.2, reaching GW-comparable precision on the mass gap candidate.
LCO achieved rapid response and adequate depth for kilonovae to 250 Mpc in O3/O4 but the galaxy-targeted strategy was less efficient than expected because GW localizations exceeded prior assumptions.
