To address just one of the many many poorly thought out points you made...
This is not the 4th strain. There have been an uncountable number of mutations, and many strains (omicron is not the 4th letter in the Greek alphabet - there have been other named strains that didn't spread)
This is the strain that spread like wildfire because it had evolved traits that allowed it to spread faster that all the other traits. The number of mutations is not important, the effect of the mutations is all that matters.
I don't think you have a good grasp of the basics of the mechanics of evolutionary selection, epidemiology or whatever. Maybe spend some time brushing up on the basics of the science before starting speculation on the why's and wherefore - stuff that appears suspicious to you now is actually a logical result of natural processes
