Had to work so hard for just a linear 23

couldn't find sub 24 from:
(F' B' D L')(R2 F' R2 F' U)

(R F D' R B) // EO
(D2 L2 R' U) // (9) 4b5

couldn't finish this. probably a 23 or smth lurking around

F2 R' U2 F' // EO

Probably missed optimal. Only DR on the scramble

Probably missed optimal from DR here but I'll take it

D R F B // EO

My pen is leaking so hard my cube is covered with ink. Couldn't get another one cause I had too many things to check. Happy about the last minute 21 from milking these to 9 to 2c3 as much as I could

B [A] (D' F2 D2 F) (L) [1] U D' L2 U L   // 11 4b2

[B][1] : (R2 U' F2 R2 D){(F2 B2 R2)} // M (18)
{} : L2 B2 L' R U2 L' R (+3)(21)

I found many 21s, so I suppose I missed a findable 20...

EDIT : I effectively missed:
{} : (D2 R L' F2 U2 D2 R L)(20)
despite trying to reduce that sequence (I only tried from normal and didn't think of using (D') as the last move of HTR)

(R2 D' R2 B') // EO ext
(R2 D B2 U' L) // 9 4c3
B2 U B2 L2 U F2 U2 L2 D' // HTR
B2 L' R F2 D2 L' R' // 25-1

I had two different 9 to 4c3 and a few more 10s but still only 24...

D2 B2 R' B' // 8 2c3
D2 R F2 R' U2 R' // HTR
D2 L2 U2 B2 L2 F2 L2 R2 // Finish (22)

Slice redux for (21)

Edit: I switched the HTR to have look at the variant after (F' B' L2 D) but missed the +5 to slice skull

R B' U L' // EO

weird insertion but it worked

Sort of satisfying because linear + direct finish. Didn't find many short DRs tho

Fun fact : 
R2 F' R' F and D B R' B' are DR-ud equivalent sequences (1qt diff). I noticed this because on this scramble F' R2 F' R' F and F' D B R' B' are both RZP 44 with the same continuation on inverse : (D2 B2 L2 D' B)

nothing worth on this attempt. Sometimes nothing works out for some reason

only DRs:
