Thanks to Scojo and the childhood rhyme/game for inspiration for this puzzle.
Thanks to ryagami for testing and feedback.
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Lines are Between Lines, Modular Lines, or Palindromes. The identity of each line must be deduced (given line colors are purely cosmetic). Lines are always straight and never branch in this puzzle, but they do touch or cross other lines. A line may not touch or cross another line of the same type.
If a line is a Between Line, the values of all digits on the inside of the line must be strictly between the values of the digits on the endpoints of the line.
If a line is a Modular line, each consecutive group of 3 cells on the line must contain one digit from each of the following sets: [1,4,7], [2,5,8], and [3,6,9].
If a line is a Palindrome, it must be read as the same sequence of digits starting from either end.
Comments are always welcome. I'd love to hear your thoughts about the puzzle. Have fun!

I loved it. Probably my favorite puzzle by now. It did take me some time and I had to re-start. It's easy to make a mistake if not careful. But it flows super nice. I colored the whole grid, lol. Thank you for this puzzle.

Hi heliopolix,
I am a cyberidiot and I don't know anything about discord or patreon or else.
Now I'm waiting for other comments of the LMG Community. Perhaps there comes a good idea. LG, R.

I would like to see here a logical path. Sorry, but within bifurcations I had no success to solve your very interesting puzzle. Surely my fault!

Really loved the flow of this one, especially the way each type of line had its own distinct place and purpose within the solve path. Great job! :)
