This was a really clever construction! I was tempted to bifurcate until I paused and saw all kinds of really neat deductions! I haven't encountered this particular ruleset before, but would love to see more like this.
Reply: Thanks! I came up with this ruleset for Monthly Puzzle Prompt on CTC Discord, but Glum Hippo has since told me of some similar rulesets. Here are some great puzzles that use similar ideas: 0009KC, 0002AT, 0002YB

This was a somewhat familiar rule set to me, but I found the solve path to be so beautifully crafted that I'd put it in the "must-solve" category.
Reply: Thanks for your comments, and for testing!
