#C [[ GRID SHOWGENSTATS ]]

I'm pretty sure there is no one-glider destruction for this object.
However, there might be a "slow" two-glider destruction where the two gliders arrive one at a time and the collision settles before the next glider arrives (there is a straightforward way to check that, but I didn't).
Failing that, one could determine how many gliders are needed to clean the target "slowly", or how many "slow" gliders from the same direction are needed to clean the target "slowly" for each direction.
