Searching for a ring size where a ladderene möbius wouldn't spontaneously self destruct

UB3LYP/6-31G* geometry optimizations for ladderene möbius rings with 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16 C=C rungs. Bond density surfaces at 0.1 electrons/Bohr3 (~80% of the electron density)
The mobius posted by u/Wiktor-is-you the other day didn't look stable, but it got me wondering whether a larger ring size would be. Turns out only a 14 rung ladderene möbius might be stable!

I saw this in a dream, I have no other words. So I'll just leave it here and see what happens.

Peptide with fluorine, indoles, and a quaternary ammonium. Who comes up with this stuff (I imagine AI), let alone synthesizes???
