I think you are getting 98% of this.

The last 2% is that the mag flux is acting as a catalyst for sun spots.

It is like you are starving a fire of it’s oxygen.

We may be seeing an extended absence of sun spots, we can see that they are trying to form, but they can’t.

The mag flux is too weak.

Since we don’t have any long term measurements of mag flux like the sun spot records, there is even a chance that we may be sending the end of sun spots.

Flash forward 20 years, a father talks to his son and says when I was little we still had sun spots. In other words, they may be history.

You were saying ...

I think this is a speculative connection... I don't see it as something that enough is known about.


We may be seeing an extended absence of sun spots, we can see that they are trying to form, but they can’t.

We've seen, in our recorded history, a longer and more extended absence of sunspots than what we see now.

As to what they are "trying" to do and what they "can and cannot do" -- that's speculative, too.


Flash forward 20 years, a father talks to his son and says when I was little we still had sun spots. In other words, they may be history.

Again, this is more speculation. There is way too much guesswork to say one way or another. Furthermore, since we've seen more severe and a much more extended time of no sunspots in our recorded history, I would say that we're far, far from being able to even "speculate" down that pathway (based on our own historical record).
