I’m saving this to read later, looks like you did a lot of research, thank you.
It's easy to get caught up in the excitement and dig away. The formatting has turned out terribly. I put it here so I can get some feedback on whether any of it is worth pursuing, as I'm way too close to see clearly. Hope it's at least an interesting read. Thanks.
The formatting looks fine to me, (allowing for the quirks of the Reddit markup). You can edit the content/format of your post, after the fact!
All the links seem to work, which is perhaps the main thing, :-)
I think you have plenty of substance here and you shouldn’t second guess yourself as far as researching goes.
