  It is exactly the same motion pattern as artifacts in other sets

  So, the images are taken roughly ten minutes apart - but the telescope stays busy during that time and moves to other places on the sky. When it's time, the telescope drives back - but since it's not perfect. it goes back to a slightly different place in the sky. And then again, and again - so it'll be something probably more or less T shaped in general due to random errors.
