Groups of gliders that include crossing paths aren't considered to be actual glider syntheses. For example, the center two gliders in this group from your construction --

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 16, rule = B3/S23
bo$2bo$3o2$3o$2bo$bo3$3bo$4bo$2b3o2$2b3o$4bo$3bo!
-- would have interacted before they reached this point (e.g., if the four glider salvos were generated by huge faraway shotguns.)

Long story short, the 576-glider pattern would need a glider synthesis of its own, and it looks like that would take quite a few more gliders to untangle all the crossing paths.
