Paschen jumps in Little Red Dots indicate their continua originate from free-bound recombination emission in low-temperature nebular gas rather than thermalized or AGN components.
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.
