Several unofficial censuses are listed on Catagolue: https://catagolue.hatsya.com/census/xsymbiosis
Random soups usually remain a single blob, instead of settling into a constellation of small objects.

How common is the bifork (the catalyst I discovered)?

I guess no way to know without a dedicated search for common catalyses. The specific object has multistate apgcode xs16_40vh_hv04 and does not appear to have any sample occurrences listed, but that ignores possible variants.
