Suppose there are currently two supermassive black holes 20 light days apart in 2d view and 200 light days apart in 3d with no accretion to speak of.
Suppose 0.1 or 0.5 billion years ago the two were messily eating and blowing a pair of streams directed by double BH orbit and say the precession of the spin of one BH's accretion disk by the gravitation pull of the other BH. And now we can see no active galaxy nucleus evidence save for a resulting pair of galaxy-size optically thick dust cones/globes…
