I think this could lead to a conversion:

x=22, y = 17, rule = B3/S23 17bo2$7b2o3b2o4b2o$7bobo2bobo4bo$9bo3b2o2bo3bo$5b4o8b2o$4bo2bo$b2o2bo 3bo10bo$o2b2ob3obo2b3o4b2o$b2o2bo3bo10bo$4bo2bo$5b4o8b2o$9bo3b2o2bo3bo $7bobo2bobo4bo$7b2o3b2o4b2o2$17bo!

JLS says this might be possible, and there's a simple domino trick afterwards.

x=31, y = 13, rule = B3/S23 27b2o$27b2o$7bo$5b3o17b4o$4bo10bo8bo2bo$b2o2bo10bo4b2o2bo3bo$o2b2obo6b 5o2bo2b2ob3obo$b2o2bo10bo4b2o2bo3bo$4bo10bo8bo2bo$5b3o17b4o$7bo$27b2o $27b2o!

That way, instead of having to create the inducting blocks from scratch, the snakes could hold the transformed still life together and then later be mutated into blocks. -wwei23, 7/16/2021, 10:26 PM NY time
