Commentary

From the tables of Elkies-Watkins 2004, 'Elliptic curves of large rank and small conductor' (ANTS-VI, arXiv:math/0403374): a low-conductor / low-discriminant curve of this rank that was absent from the leaderboard. Witness: a maximal independent set of rational points (Neron-Tate height pairing).
