What I meant when I said they were triangles was that they were reflected triangle numbers, not that they were visual triangles. Although, that non-linear triangle you pointed out (the red one) makes me think that maybe the whole thing really is the triangle, if this does actually mean something. Partially because once it isn't linear (one less 0 the lower the column) the number of 0s until the next column is 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 5. Aside from the first one, that's the same sequence as here >>5261 in terms of rows where the highest power of 2 is. 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 5. So I'm just blindly extrapolating here but I would think bigger triangles might follow that pattern and that the next would be 7, then 9, then 13 and so on. That's if it isn't the other explanations I was thinking, which is that it is reflected triangle numbers and that the fact that its a big triangle means it overlaps with other 0 patterns that we haven't figured out yet.
If that wasn't a larper and you're reading this VQC, I had to have my dog put down about a month ago for similar reasons. You aren't alone. It would also be good to have confirmation with trip that you didn't an hero, but obviously that's not a priority when you're going through whatever you're going through, so whenever you're ready.
