Extensible oscillators and infinite sets are noted as such but only listed as their first term, to prevent arbitrarily large ones approaching volatility 1.

Notes

  1. ↑ Occurred in a different form (with loaves instead of barges) in a D4_x4 Charity Engine soup on 2022-04-21
  2. ↑ Note that a perturbed beacon can be supported by either side of the unix's LWSS spark, so there exists a trans- version (also seminaturally occurring) and an infinite family of oscillators with the same volatility
