With $s \in \mathbb{C}, a \in \mathbb{R}$, numerical evidence strongly suggests that the complex zeros in the critical strip of: $$\zeta\left(\frac{s}{a}\right) \pm \zeta\left(\frac{1-s}{a}\right)$$ all reside on the line $\Re(s)=\frac12$ for $a \lt 0$ or $a\ge 1$. There also exist a finite few complex zeros for each $a$, but these are outside the critical strip. When $a=1$ the formula reduces to [this question][1]. **Question:** Is there an explanation for this phenomenon (or a counter example)?
