Radiation hydrodynamic simulations of wind-reprocessed TDEs reveal a ~3-week offset between optical/UV and bolometric light curve peaks due to the buildup time of the reprocessing layer.
N6946-BH1's remnant is roughly 10 times fainter than its progenitor while stellar merger remnants are 10-100 times brighter, and asymmetric dust cannot explain the difference.
