I'm not sure if the gliders come from infinity. How might I verify this?
Maybe just use shift.py to move each glider 10 ticks diagonally in the appropriate direction, and see if you still get the same final pattern. In point of fact, you don't:

Is there a name for patterns in which the pattern's population is upper bounded but not all cells eventually become periodic?

I am not sure what you mean by "pattern's population is upper bounded" but "not all cells eventually become periodic" is total aperiodic .

The former means that the ...

Things go wild when I add always-live cells....

When there're cells always on, the pattern last very long:
