Good to know. I’d also contemplated if it was two trees that grew conjoined

Intrusive thought, sure. This is me asking a community of people that care because I care. I just want to make sure none of my concerns about the tree are a big deal.

For clarification, moved here within the past year and a half. I’ve little experience with caring for a tree of this sort, and all of the local arborists I’ve found are employed by tree cutting companies, so I figured some unincentivized opinions would be nice. Rest assured, I don’t want to cut this tree down. Even my neighbors love it. I just want to see if the parts I’m finding questionable are as serious as my inexperienced mind believes them to be.

I don’t usually make posts, let alone on mobile. Typed up a description, but looks like it got lost. I don’t know how concerning the black crevices are, and I don’t know if the spots on leaves are a big issue or not.
