I must have missed something. After the initial break in with the 4s, I spent more than an hour looking at candidates without seeing sufficient constraints. I just guessed at the 10 symmetry to make progress. Can you tell me what I should have seen? Thanks.
It's a leap of faith.

Wow, very nice puzzle, but definitely a lot harder than 1 star :-)
