I wouldn't say there is one smoking gun. But when you put them all together it's a very strange obsession and it is clearly not actual jerky. Jerky doesn't go in the freezer.
The only reference for anyone who does is from you, some anonymous person on the internet.
Grocery stores don't do it, nobody I've ever met does it. You'd render it inedible until you thaw it out, so it is not practical. It simply doesn't make sense.

uuuhhh my mother puts it in the freezer constantly. it's deer meat. it freezes. just thought i'd make that point
The point of jerky is that it's storable at room temperature. That's why it is never in the freezer at the grocery store.
that's cool but people still freeze it. that was my point.
No, as a rule people don't freeze it.
