That did cross my mind.

But the headine said explosion, and I like writing splodey. Pretty sure the astronomer that I heard on the radio earlier described it as an explosion too.

So when does an explosion stop being an explosion?

Yup, I think, that 30Bn X the average power of the Sun in a volume of only 100 solar systems is pretty splody. 3 years is not long for an shockwave from an explosion to travel about 5x further than Voyager.
