Interesting idea overall but the middle part was rather tedious to break through, could've either used another given or changed some clues for that part in my opinion.

Thank you - I often struggle with keeping a tight though not tedious solution path in the middle part of the solve as I often find extra clues tend to compromise the earlier parts, the aesthetics or the narrowness of the overall path… But I guess that’s one of those skills you can hone forever! I think of you as a truly excellent setter so if you have any advice on how to practice that part of setting I would be most grateful!
