A delightful bit of logic! (Almost formal logic, actually.)

Love this! Everything is wrogn. Only suggestion might be something in the rules that makes it clear that thermometers may not increase between any two adjacent cells. It’s a little ambiguous at the moment whether two cells can increase so long as the thermo breaks, and removing that ambiguity would help dispel confusion.
