trailEddington-limited accretion by metastable micro black holes would evade existing astrophysical observations.
Black holes capable of Eddington-limited accretion and radiation are also subject to astrophysical retention bounds.
Astrophysical bounds from stellar survival do not exclude metastable collider-produced black holes.
Plaga's Eddington-limit mechanism· for
Accretion by micro black holes inside dense stars is limited by the Eddington luminosity.
Radiation from a micro black hole accreting inside dense stellar matter is trapped and advected inward with the accretion flow

Micro black holes captured inside neutron stars or white dwarfs accrete at approximately the Bondi rate

Giddings–Mangano inconsistency objection· against
Plaga's metastable black-hole risk scenario applies Hawking-radiation and accretion formulas inconsistently.
Plaga's metastable black-hole scenario adopts the Casadio–Harms quantum black-hole model.
Plaga's scenario estimates metastable black-hole Hawking power at approximately 10^16 watts.
Consistent application of the Casadio–Harms model yields micro black-hole radiated power far below hazardous levels.

In warped brane-world models, micro black holes cease growing far below catastrophic mass.
