Fast accretion in warped scenarios
The argument
Because linked claim, growth in warped scenarios is not intrinsically self-limiting: when the crossover radius to four-dimensional behavior lies above the atomic scale, accretion can proceed to macroscopic mass on sub-geological timescales, and the case for safety in those scenarios rests on empirical exclusion by white dwarf and neutron star survival rather than on growth ceasing of its own accord.

The inference is sound as far as it reaches: because a stable hole in warped scenarios with a large crossover radius could accrete to macroscopic mass within Earth's lifetime, now assessed as supported, growth in those scenarios is not intrinsically self-limiting, and the benchmark safety analysis indeed excluded them empirically rather than by slow growth. The caveat is that the premise stipulates stability as a worst case, so the argument refutes the claim only if warped brane-localized black holes fail to evaporate, which remains the unresolved crux between the two sides.
