I'm torn on this one. I believe I've seen instances of Q sneaking in anonymously to redirect us or add to our thinking (occasionally).
On the other hand, Q said "no outside comms" and "be careful who you follow".
Flipping back one last time, we could try to decipher this thing with an big asterisk that it's a "side project" and wait for confirmation from either Q or the hive when "completed".
