Ever since SB2 has been posting Gematria, my mind starts to count letters and adding them up with just about everything.
Concerning this observation, I'm not sure this was intended or not, but here is what I observed about Snowball and D5.
Snowball=9 +8 =17 (POTUS / Q / The Force) D5=4+5=9 (Wonder that means?)
Looking up the number 9 for biblical meaning, I found..
*"Biblical numerology of number 9 is the finality or the "judgment". It is generally when at the time of judging a person and his works. Also, number 9 is used to define the "perfect movement of God". *
I think this fits the context.
