Cryptic Elite Instagram/Twitter posts?

Just been having a bit of a speculation/ stream-of-consiousness chat with another interested party on the Elite Week discord server. I'm not saying I'm right; I'm prolly very wrong but I think it's worth repeating here:
Me:
My best 2+2 moment right now is that the light intensity is either a relative position star location map or details of the composition of the star/planet layout of the target system.
As in how many stars/planets are in the system and what they're orbiting around.
I mean, FDev HAVE placed that kind of cryptic information inside audiogrphs and other meta details before...

Other: do the 9 tiles overlay the 9 sector squares of the Coalsack nebula on the Galactic Map?

Me: I don't know and I'm not in a position to check. I think that's a job for CANONN

IDK, but if they did then the light intensity could possibly correspond to relative height in the galaxy map
 
Seen from earth, there is an open cluster near the Coalsack called the 'Jewel Box' wondering if this is related to the stones.

The stars in this cluster are a few Kly's further away than the Coalsack though (eg HR4887 / HR4876 / HIP62953 )

You could be onto something there.

The cluster was named the Jewel Box by the English astronomer John Herschel, who described it as a “casket of variously coloured precious stones”

From Earth the cluster looks like it sits on top of the Coalsack nebula, check out the images on this page:

 
Sadly no. Longest digits back to back are 5 digits. Longes morse code (if you use . as 0 and - as 1) is 4 sigits.
the longest letters in morse code are 4 digits, but some numbers are 5 digits

Correction: all morse code numbers are 5 digits

Very similar sounding to a casket recently mentioned in Galnet. Harold Duval’s casket.
