New CO survey of 62 CALIFA galaxies shows median molecular gas depletion times rising from 2.1 Gyr on the main sequence to 128 Gyr in red galaxies, with SFE declining systematically below the SFMS independent of CO-to-H2 conversion factor choice.
Scatter in the resolved star-forming main sequence is primarily due to variations in star formation efficiency

Simulations show observationally selected protocluster candidates at z ≳ 5 include significant interlopers, undergo 2-6 major mergers, and exhibit stronger clustering than observed, requiring total galaxy mass within 10 cMpc for reliable progenitor identification.
