In 13 FIRE-2 Milky Way-mass simulations, all progenitors pass through transient elongated phases, while their present-day stellar populations are symmetric disks or spheroids, implying many observed high-redshift elongated galaxies are short-lived.

Pickles on FIRE: The 3D Shape Evolution of Simulated Milky Way-Mass Galaxies
In 13 FIRE-2 Milky Way-mass simulations, all progenitors pass through transient elongated phases, while their present-day stellar populations are symmetric disks or spheroids, implying many observed high-redshift elongated galaxies are short-lived.
