Used, or recommended by the developer?

While beta testing, our team used 20 AWG green and yellow purchased on separate spools (e.g., McMaster 8054T14) and twisted pairs ourselves with a vise and drill, to about 20 twists per foot. So far no issues. We twisted to get good handling/routing, not to solve an EMI problem.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
