New Black Hole Physics of Quantum FFF Theory:
Equal sized black holes with <15% ratio differences do not merge
"Mass ratio and total mass estimates for all O3a events. Contours represent 90% credible intervals. Six unique events are highlighted"
Q-FFF Theory says: Black holes do repel Fermions (mass) by their rotating propeller forms pushe away by the spacetime concentration at the BH horizon, which is the origin of Herbig Haro forming a pushing plasma bar between the two BHs.See also: Herbig Haro Astrophysics Based on Dual Rigid Strings. https://vixra.org/pdf/2007.0158v1.pdf
See the plasma bar already between even different black holes below, before the splitting process..
Splitting example of splitting black holes forming two equal sized BHs and a different third one.
