Could this be a perfectly linear triode?

What do you think of this for a near-perfect linear triode?

I think I'll copy SY and let you guess what it is!

I notice some slightly doubled up lines for each curve. Some tube hysteresis factor or capacitance in the test setup maybe? Someone even mentioned recently an article by Norman Crowhurst about the absolute limitations of VT amplification accuracy due to vaccum tube hysteresis. But those doubled up lines look a bit too perfect for that.

And the clean separation of the curves at the bottom don't look like typical tube curves.
Some Mosfet contraption likely.
