Hi and welcome to the forum. 

Your python script goes over my head, so I'll leave it to the more capable people on the forum to evaluate if it does produce results in favour of the script being right to left...but I will say

Please don't trust AI as a sound evaluator of theories.  Maybe your work is indeed  "exceptionally valuable" and "sets a new standard for objectivity in the field."  But it's worth being suspicious when AI rolls out such compliments.  The current models flatter the user to keep them engaged.  There was You are not allowed to view links.
