Rotation lowers the effective gravity at the equator of luminous blue variables, so the modified Eddington limit is reached earlier there, producing equator-first instability and predicted disk or bipolar circumstellar geometries.

The Effect of Rotation on Triggering S Doradus Instabilities in Luminous Blue Variables
Rotation lowers the effective gravity at the equator of luminous blue variables, so the modified Eddington limit is reached earlier there, producing equator-first instability and predicted disk or bipolar circumstellar geometries.
