> Fast Fourier Transform algorithm popularized by J. W. Cooley and John Tukey during the Cold War; later used in Soviet Union nuclear-test detection
In crosswords or trivia in general, you don't include the answer inside the clue. I saw many examples of this in the puzzle.

You are correct. I did this intentionally for answers I felt were unfriendly as a fill. Since the puzzle avoids filler, there are fewer crossings available to help infer answers. I made a few clues more direct to keep them from becoming opaque. Any thoughts on this format?
