synchronized dance?

Let me see if I am picturing this correctly: is the article saying that in Herbertsmithite, the magnetic domains are continuously varying in some sort of synchronized dance?

Also, I'm wondering how neutrons.could measure such a variation in states?

Big question

And then there's the BIG question: are these.researchers suggesting that after the Herbertsmithite crystal is divided, the dance of the now separated domains continues to be synchronized - that is, the domains continue to be quantum entangled?

Thus we see that the fabled ansible (subspace communicator) contains Herbertsmithite crystals. Right?
