But could not in some cases the same wobble be the result of a co-orbiting similar mass binary planet that are smaller and further out but orbit each other every few days in such way despite being I invariant and stable on average the configuration at at one point of both planets lined up radially whilemail at the other of equal distance to star displaced along the tangential….would account well enough for the high frequency large magnitude wobble
