I had a big laugh with “This baby scientist was found abandoned in a dump…”.

I hope Jeph is going for a cast herd type comic like Something
Positive. Moving everyone to Cubetown seems a bit too "We ran out
of ideas."
Frankly I still think he should run with the idea of Marten as a
therapist. Maybe he could do that as a barista.

From Jeph's latest Patreon post:

I’ve seen some speculation that the comic is wrapping up- that is not
the case. I have no plans to end QC. The comic has changed focus many
times over the course of its lifespan. That’s what has kept it
interesting for me, over all these years. Sending Marten and Claire to
Cubetown looks to be just another one of those shifts. Which is funny,
because the genesis of the whole idea was me thinking “you know, I
barely do anything with Marten anymore, and he’s in a good place with
Claire. It might be time to give them a ride into the sunset since they
don’t seem to be the focus of my interest these days.” Then I started
gathering all the threads together for this story, and suddenly Marten
was fun to write again and I had a million ideas for Cubetown and welp I
guess I accidentally an entire new setting, lol. That’s how it goes
sometimes.
I hesitate to make predictions about the future, because I often end up
being wrong (see above), but so far I’m having fun switching between
Cubetown and Northampton as the creative process calls for it. So I’m
pretty sure I won’t be dumping Northampton as a setting, or moving the
entire cast to Cubetown, or any of the other more far-fetched ideas I’ve
seen floating around. I’m just going to keep writing comics like I
always have, and follow the path where it leads. I’ve learned to trust
myself when it comes to this stuff.

hitting 5,000 comics, very impressive. I have been reading since around
4,000 or so.
