no SK loop, no EXOCET, no "rank0 logic"? (at least nothing found by my solver)
Nevertheless, one can find a nice loop at that point where the SK loop should stand.
Wow, an "SK-loop" with 5-layers ... instead of the classical 4-layers. [Not wishing to be disappointed too quickly, I didn't look for anything smaller.]
Congratulations ronk,
I don't call that a SK loop, but it is very close to, I agree.
Your SLG includes the nice loop (digits 2;7) and clearly uses the specificities i noticed in boxes 3 and 7.
I stopped the search for rank0 logic with four layers.
I'll see if my solver see something with five layers.

EDIT:
This is a pure rank 0 logic in a well known pattern.
No reason why my solver would not find it.
As it did not after I extended the search to 5 floors, I have something to fix.
EDIT 2:
Once found the reason why the solver did not find the rank 0 logic, it works, but is of no use in fact.
some remarks referring to ronk's SLG.
1) Ronk did not apply the 2 hidden pairs in boxes 1 and 9, doing part of the eliminations.
2) The Nice loop eliminates, if I am right, all the other eliminations shown in that rank 0 logic.
3) so the rank 0 logic exists but should be dry.
4) the 1;3;5;6;9 logic has additionnal potential
