never knew I was the first to use this term, that's a neat surprise, but I made this since I'd seen the term around since then; let's use some extra references to drive that home (dirty rake is the older term, though) |
how is the terminology notable? |

A puffrake[1][2][3] (or dirty rake[4]) is a moving linear growth pattern which produces both stationary objects and spaceships; it creates objects associated with both puffers and rakes.
The glider-producing switch engine is one example, as it produces both gliders and a thick field of other stationary objects.
