All of this is of course highly speculative, since we have no evidence in the relevant physical regime and aren't likely to get any any time soon.

Both of these seem like they're more or less rediscovering the Bardeen black hole (a misnomer as the solution actually contains no true event horizon, only apparent horizons), just with charge or angular momentum added. We've had a number of previous PF threads that discuss the Bardeen black hole.
