Tips on Notation (no spoilers on the solve path)
In general, tentropy puzzles are best solved using a coloring approach with one color assigned to each tentropy set. In a puzzle that also includes modified cells, it is suggested that solvers use a light grey to indicate 'real' cells and some other color, like red, to indicate modified cells. Tentropy colors can overlay with the grey to help with scanning for 'real' pairs of tentropy digits.

This is just sublime brilliance! One of the best puzzles of the year. When two fantastic setters combine effort, something stunning always emerges. Very fresh and interesting ruleset with absolutely unpredictable conclusions, especially with modifier cells. One impeccable deduction after the other, and the puzzle leads you very gently and steadily, although very slowly, towards the solution, absolutely not letting you go until the very end. First digits after several hours of deductions, despite the rules almost dictate you to put a five or two fives immediately, it was definitely a 5 star puzzle and maybe a tad more for me. And Ns, little killer disambiguating clues, are cherries on top of the cake. Also, the puzzle just flummoxes with its aesthetics. Fantastic work, just wow, MSDOS and ChinStrap!
MSDOS: Thank you so much for taking the time to write this thoughtful message. It really means a lot!
