The one in the corners are slow as well, they just act as a regular termos because they never leave one box ;)
Great puzzle. Loved every step

You could get rid of the thermometer rule entirely to make it not concise, since all of the thermos can operate with just the slow thermo rule.

Nope, all in the middle are slow and I have learned to be more specific in my wording, thanks for your comments.
