As it’s been theorized elsewhere, it may be that the production processes produce a material with only bits of the theorized superconductor in it, leading to the wiggling effect we see here as well as the Chinese replication video.

It is not a purity issue. On the other hand, 1D superconductors are expected to behave this way. See my other comments.

How do we know it isn't a purity issue?
