Nice flow, especially at the start. Overall, not brutally hard, but with some interesting deductions. I just worked with the one ruleset, until there was no more to deduce, then simply switched to the other one and solved the rest. Thanks!
-----
Thanks for the solve and the kind words. In my path, I used both regularly throughout the solve, but there is enough flexibility to allow for such a strategy as yours.

Tough one, make sure to read the rules carefully.

Really appreciate your tenacity and feedback. Though, I did make sure that every deduction in the solve path is fair, but yes, it is imperative to understand the rules when solving this one.
