I am the rule's creator:

And I found a P19:

Wow, at first glance this rule doesn't look like anything special (just two states of GoL that mutually stabilize each other) but it's actually quite fascinating.

There's probably ways to reduce the stators on a lot of these, but I didn't make more than cursory attempts to do so.

I'm sad nobody cared about the p77 glider loop (just like with the oblique 1d replicator)
Most of the oscillators are billiard tables, so seeing one that's not is pretty rare. (Some billiard tables, like Saka's p116 are interesting)
As a result, no oscillators I post are billiard tables (except the p13, which is interesting)

I think the P77 is cool, especially because it's a glider loop. I was busy looking for P23s... Also, I am quoting the entire post because this is from my iPad, so it's extremely hard to trim...

Still try to trim if you just want to say a few words.
