Maybe don't read too much into the word choice of a non-technical article, and trust the actual astronomer discoverer talking about it?
The top comment stating who discovered it was there yet when i made my initial comment where i was upfront that i may be looking to deep with my limited knowledge.
While i recognize that the discussion here has evolved with more nuance and smarter opinions you cant blame me for sticking with the original conversation which is the posted article. After all i am just respond to the replies i get i am not going to re-read the entire thread every time.
I also recognize that the first person to reply did say “According to the discoverer, this has nothing to do with the event horizon.”
But there was no source and i just read it as the “horizon has nothing to do with the burp” that doesn’t mean the twisted physics inside it do not.
