Hi Steve! That's really neat and beats the crap out of my ugly kraken BUG! I'm just wondering if the =BUG+2= should actually be =BUG+3= when using the "catalyst" notation. To me the derived strong link in your chain exists because of the original BUG+3 situation, and the inlined explanation should reflect that. I think it should be no different from the corresponding external explanation:

BUG+3: 2r1c5 == (239)r2368c5 <-> 2r1c5 =BUG+3= (239)r2368c5

What do you think? I think BUG+2 would be correct if it were used as a boolean term by itself as in 2r1c5 = BUG+2, but that's not the case here (and I don't know how that chain variant should even continue). I know I've messed up with these before myself so I can't be 100% sure of anything, but at least now those interpretations seem to make the most sense to me.

Nice, Cenoman! That in turn beats the crap out of my second solution :D

I think you're right. I'll leave it as is so people can see where you're coming from.
