"Dissociating the Eddington Limit: From Intrinsic Compact Object Property to Baryonic Emergent
We present a conceptual reinterpretation of the classical Eddington limit in the context of the Pure Energetic Phase (PEP) framework. Contrary to traditional understanding, where the Eddington limit is considered an intrinsic property of a compact object, we argue that it emerges from interactions of surrounding baryonic matter, driven primarily by angular momentum redistribution and local density gradients. The limit is thus conditional and dynamic, dependent on matter density, rotation, magnetic configurations, and local gravitational fields. This perspective provides testable predictions for low-angular-momentum black holes, supernovae, and extreme accretion events while maintaining coherence with General Relativity and observational constraints, challenging the notion of black holes as active luminosity regulators
