Sort Circuit

Rules
Normal sudoku rules apply. Along a grey line, for any orange marker on that line, every digit on one side of the marker must be greater than every digit on the other side of the marker. This rule applies to the end of the line in each direction, and the side of the marker which has the greater digits must be determined by the solver. Digits around a black dot must have a ratio of 2:1.
Examples
For a line of length 4 with a marker in the middle, valid combinations include 13/67, 67/13, and 13/66. Invalid combinations include 16/37 (because the 3 is greater than the 1 but less than the 6) and 13/37 (because 3 is not greater than 3).
For a line of length 3 with 2 markers, a valid combination would be 2/4/6. 2/6/4 would be invalid - the left-hand marker is satisfied but the right-hand marker is not.
Lösungscode: Rows 2 and 8

A very very hard but very enjoyable puzzle. The logic flowed very smoothly but only after making really intricate deductions along the way. Thanks for sharing this. Would love to see Simon tackle it on CtC.

Beautiful logic - those lines are really interesting and I am sure we will be seeing more of them.

Bruh what a twisted variation on inequality signs, though it was great fun all the way through! Thanks for this :)
