Alleged-video 6 fps ‘Gorgon Stare match’ is contradicted by the 2013 OSD report
The 6 fps ‘Gorgon Stare match’ claimed for alleged video is not established. 2 fps is the documented comparison figure. Increment 2’s rate is unpublished here.
Keep video authenticity as a separate question from sensor attribution. A numerical match between a social-media file and a sensor spec is weak forensic evidence.
