Obviously we can eliminate 5 from all cells marked with * (otherwise r23c4=[41] would cause a contradiction in b1). Also we can eliminate 7 from all cells marked with # (otherwise r2c2+r3c3=[41] would cause a contradiction in r23c4).
(Edited: the last sentence is wrong. Thanks Danny & Ron for correcting.)
However, I can't find any satisfactory ALS description for this move. Is it a new type of ALS which warrants a new name for it?
