SN 2011kl is broadly consistent with an LFBOT light-curve model and ULGRB hosts match LFBOT/LGRB environments, supporting a shared He-CO merger progenitor for a subset of both classes.

A synchrotron forward-shock model with confined broken-power-law CSM explains FBOT radio diversity via shock transition out of the dense shell, yielding trans-relativistic velocities of 0.1-0.5c and high but brief mass-loss rates of 10^{-4} to 10^{-3} solar masses per year.
TESS and ZTF observations of 12 LFBOTs yield no late-time flares after SSO attribution, constraining central engine lifetimes to hundreds of days or less.
