is that not a closed loop from the top view (xy)? Or am I misinterpreting the question...

Cool animation, yeah this is sorta weird I don't really have any ideas yet still trying to visualize some kind of approach. It's like graph theory but stuck to a grid, really interesting.

Maybe if we look at the traces of the 3 planes we can try to create or combine one with this? Hmmm
