Reply to comment by EmergeHolographic in Stereoscopic GIF of a NASA simulation of two binary black holes orbiting by EmergeHolographic

I get the feeling that you know a lot about black holes and very little about how stereoscopic images work.

It may not be stereoscopic parallax, but I do make these to be viewable with stereoscopes so it is stereoscopic by definition, if that's what you mean

I like how you proved them right by trying to explain yourself

It's more that there generally isn't a well fitting word for what I'm doing. "Stereoscopic" is the closest, though; "noting or pertaining to three-dimensional vision or any of various processes and devices for giving the illusion of depth from two-dimensional images or reproductions, as of a photograph or motion picture."

It accurately conveys the medium, viewing method and the intended subject, which is the symmetry. As long as I get those things across

Except there is no illusion of depth here, thus not stereoscopic by your own referenced definition. It being able to be viewed through a stereoscope doth not stereoscopic make.
