WARNING: Not doing science review -- Will resolve based on whoever wins their bet & gets paid.
I guess if you really want to understand the conditions, you should watch the first 50mins of the embedded video - I expect them to conclude in good faith as is relevant to the "Havana Syndrome" allegations
Criteria they gave:
It has to go through walls
It has to be directed
Destiny mentions the bet around 44:20, goes for a few minutes. Criteria mentioned at 45:55

3.00@Snarflak If a tool designed for any purpose has these effects, is it not a weapon?
I'm resolving based on how Destiny and Dan resolve their bet, but I think if there was any "energy weapon" like tool causing the direct effects, they would count it.
@Gen No, that wouldn't make it a weapon. The Great Seal bug only operated when a strong UHF signal was directed at it, for instance. If that energizing signal caused people to hear audible sounds in the office, that wouldn't constitute a weapon.
