Lovely puzzle! My dad and I were wondering if the algebraic factorisation on the top row was intended? We enjoyed that very much! I've just released a puzzle with dual rules lines too - it definitely has potential! :)

I spent a third of the time on it just figuring out how the rules interacted with each other. After ghrasping that, it was an excellent solve.
