I haven't checked whether it actually produces different timings compared to every similar-sized structure that we know about -- like the various G0s plus semi-Snarks and semi-cenarks, and plain Snarks plus various shifters, and so on. It's a standard boat-turner attached to the Herschel's first natural glider, so we've known about larger engineered ways to get those glider timings for decades now. But I don't think we've seen anything with this small a bounding box.

Maybe the most similar existing technology is the various small G4 and G5 converters plus the loaf2GtoG.

(Hm, Guam's loaf2GtoG doesn't have any hits on LifeWiki yet. Seems like it's small and paleo-Spartan enough to deserve some documentation.)

I think it will be hard to improve this way :
