Post-merger black hole spin inferred from quasinormal ringing (χ_final ~ 0.6–0.7) can disagree with spin estimated from in-band precession; ringdown analyses assume quasinormal mode dominance, but low-frequency merger dynamics and mass ejection contribute to signal, creating bias in ringdown mode extraction.
