:: The "Jubjub wire" definition, such as it was, was from a counterfactual Discord discussion on August 19, 2022, about first contact with Conway's-Life obsessed aliens -- at a time when the Jubjub reflector hadn't been named "Jubjub" yet (it had been found in July but wasn't named until December) so "Jubjub" was still open for random uses.
