5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 23:26, 11 December 2020 (UTC).[reply]

Article was 5x expanded within 7 days of nomination (2591b to 18kb). Article is well-written and well-sourced. No pings on Earwigs and no close paraphrasing. Hooks are interesting, cited, and short enough for DYK; source on ALT1 seems to be somewhat dubious, and AGF on the paywalled source on ALT0, but but ALT2 is a good one.
