I know there are even more spectacular configurations in OA, but I still found this intriguing. It would be interesting to set up a system like this in the setting. Since this was done with red dwarf stars, I wonder if the amount of planets could be increased if G stars were used?
Also, it would be good to hear if anyone objects to this from a purely physical/gravitational standpoint.
