Oh, that was devious! Very clever use of thermos which got me thinking about the constraint in new ways. Great setting.

Hugely underrated. A must-solve for any aspiring thermo wizard. Exemplifies an aspect of thermo logic beautifully.

[Sometimes Thermos generate 'scary' fish (swordfish, jelllyfish) this is a non-trivial thermo in a different way].

Crisp logic, requires thought, not extremely difficult: what's not to like in a decently challenging puzzle?
