The multipartite result (arXiv:2509.25145) generalizes and subsumes the earlier bipartite analysis. Talks given before 2025 correspond to the bipartite case, while later talks include the full multipartite framework. This talk has been presented at multiple venues. The date above is set to the most recent instance for correct ordering in the Talks list. Materials (slides/poster) are partially shared with twists
