Fogtorization

This is a Fog of War puzzle. You can play it on SudokuPad: https://sudokupad.app/l310pkxn5d
Rules: Normal Sudoku rules apply. Equal sum/product cages: All blue (“+”) cages have the same SUM; all yellow (“×”) cages have the same PRODUCT. Both constants are to be determined by the solver. Digits may repeat within a cage if allowed by Sudoku. Dynamic fog of war: The grid is partially covered in fog. Entering correct digits may clear fog somewhere in the grid. Usually a correct entry will clear its own cell, but not always — some fog is extra dense! No guessing is required.

Once in a while you have a puzzle where a "very nice" rating doesn't feel enough to express the beauty of a puzzle. This is most certainly one of them. Thanks for setting this gem.
