Hi Cenoman,

A Deadly Death Blossom? :) That's very nice! My first solution used the same DP and the same guardians but a different elimination. After seeing yours there was no point in posting that, because it was both too similar and not nearly as nice (6x6 vs 4x4 in matrix form).

Btw, I think that DP type should have its own name, because it's so simple and distinctive. In fact, it's the closest thing to a UR having just two digits and being located in a single chute. I think it falls under the definitions of BUG-Lite and Unique Loop, but they're much more generic allowing different shapes and multiple digits. The Extended UR (SudokuWiki) is probably the closest in shape, but even that can have multiple digits.

r1c1 should be r2c1?

If you mean 6r1c1, it's correct as an external guardian to the DP. The corresponding internal guardian in box 1 would be 9r2c1. It would work too, but with a slightly longer route: (9)r2c1 - (9=6)r1c1 - (6=4)r1c7.

Why not ? But a bit pleonastic, though...
Btw, I think that DP type should have its own name,

Sudopedia recommmends to name it BUG-lite. Extended UR could fit with other 6-cell DP's but not with the L-shaped one.

PS: thanks for your quick answer to yzfwsf.
