Definitely just storm damage. If someone cut it, you'd see a solid surface that the saw cut through. Idk where reddit gets the idea that people commonly poach burls for woodwork, lol it literally never happens where I live/work

Nah, not a maple. Looks like a Siberian elm.

Yes, but trees don't heal , they compartmentalize. That wound has been open for some time and the tree is unable to fully close it. It will begin to rot from the wound inward as water, disease, pests, and other fun things begin to make their way inside until the trunk is soft enough it falls over in the next storm.

To me, it looks like someone cut a very valuable burl off the tree, which is a previous heal. They are valuable to woodworkers and are sometimes poached by assholes.

You're absolutely correct. This is a Norway maple (maybe a red maybe actually?) And they tend to get splitty due to bad structure where branches meet.
Look into "bark inclusion" if you're curious.

The bulges on the damaged part indicate that it is trying to heal itself though, so still very much alive.

Probably either got half blown down by storm winds or struck my lightning but no evidence of lightning damage. Probably just got too big on one side for its own good and fell over in the wind

What has actually happened to this tree here? Looks damaged.

That'd be an elm, not an oak
