Corrected empirical limits show the most massive galaxies never exceed the theoretical baryonic maximum of 0.16 times halo virial mass, keeping observations consistent with LambdaCDM at all redshifts.

FIRE-2 simulations find metallicity gradients in EoR galaxies flatten from median -0.15 dex/kpc at z~10 to -0.1 at z~6, with positive correlations to stellar mass and gas flow proxy Δv/2σ and links to central SFR density.
Simulations find [C II] traces star formation robustly but underestimates outflow speeds and mass-loading factors by factors of 2-5, with feedback type affecting disk settling but not distinguishable from [C II] spatial or spectral properties alone.
A LambdaCDM black hole growth model predicts that observed high-redshift Little Red Dots are the luminous tip of a larger population undergoing super-Eddington accretion in nuclear bursts.
