Consider that our sun contains 99.86% of the mass of our Solar System.
If you dumped that into a Sun-sized metal-poor star, it would probably pass for metal-rich.

A Sun sized metal poor star wouldn't be surrounded by large amounts of orbiting heavy elements .. that would suggest even larger amounts failed to orbit and fell into that star.
( I'll freely confess to being decades out of date on the conjectured life of stars though, these days I mainly do geophysics related to astrophysics (cancelling out ground effects from SKA type projects) )
But as the black hole approached, Hieronymus noted there was no gravitational effect. He studied it more closely and announced, with a chuckle, that it was not a black hole after all.
“It’s nothing,” he said. “Just an ordinary asteroid someone has painted black.”
