I think that's about the same as SukakuExplainer's solving path.
The SudokuExplainer that has Hodoku solving methods starts off differently:
Hidden Text: Show
Code: Select all
ALS-XZ: in box 1 and box 2 on 7 and 3,4: -3r1c46, -34r2c13
ALS-XZ: in box 1 and col 4 on 7 and 2: -2r1c4, -2r4c1
ALS-XZ: in box 1 and box 2 on 7 and 4: -4r3c456
followed by a number of XY-Wings

Yeah, I was checking it against SE and YZF's solver as I narrowed in on a unique solution, no surprises there.

Here's a harder version with 12 (plus a slew of other stuff), though I suspect the non-thematic ones are redundant. I'm going to attempt to get this as close to just the thematic technique + basics as I can.

Oh, nice, I didn't think to check backdoors given how complicated the solution path was. That gives an easy way to simplify it:

(SE now finds
Hidden Text: Show
13 XY-Wings
)

But this version definitely reduces the number actually needed to solve it. (You can do it with 2.)

On seeing the WXYZ-Wing in your solution, I tried to add braids. Instead of a solution in W7, I get one in B4. So, that's an interesting example of a very rare case where the B and W ratings are different.
Part of the eliminations done by your WXYZ-wings are done by braids[4] and the rest by simpler bivalue-chains[3]:
