Waltz and Tango
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Digits in cages must multiply!! to the number in the top left corner.
- Inequality signs point to a factor of the number at the open end.
- In every row, column, and 3x3 box, there is one digit that acts as an exponent. Each digit (1-9) appears as an exponent exactly once.
- Exponents in cages are applied to all orthogonally adjacent digits in the cage.
- Exponents outside of cages act as normal digits valued 1-9.
- Cages must be totalled following order of operations (exponents then multiplication)
This puzzle is from a long time ago, and was inspired by Christophermoore's puzzle Square Dance. If you enjoy please consider checking out my other puzzles :)
Lösungscode: row 5 left to right no spaces

Hello erml,
You are missing something when looking at the 9 cage.
Spoiler!
There is more than one way to multiply to 9.

Spoiler alert!
9 cage: 3^2*1
100 cage: 5^2*4
No other options. Breaks the rule of a digit being exponet only once.
What am I missing?

Unable to find a way to satisfy the 9 and the 100 cage without using the 2 twice as an exponent...

Nice puzzle, a 2 star for me because after locating the key spots, it crumbles quite quickly
