There should be some predictions about the energy levels of neutrons created by fission of U-235 versus those created by a proposed fusion reaction. I think there is much more to be done.

My first thought too and I think you are right. Very simple test: run the same experiment with depleted Uranium. Radioactive decay will produce the same bubbles. Less U235 will produce fewer fission related neutrons.

Is there a typical level of "depletion" associated with depleted Uranium?

One of the difficulties associated with all these desktop fusion experiments has been that the signal being detected has been barely above the background noise levels. If there is something going on, there is only very little of it.
