first triple 20!!!
U' L U B' D'

8.67 finish lengths. is there a guide on how to use NISSY to check optimal solution for each step?

swag
(F2 U')
(D2 R') L2 B2 D2 F L F R // 11 4a1 4e
(L2 F') // htr in 13 but its garbage

remove normal
B2 D2 B2 L2 F' R F L // blocky fish 3e for new htr in 14
D2 L2 [D2 B2 L2] // S in 19

[]->B2 L2 F2 U2 F2 // 21 - 1 = 20

and i didnt realize B2 D2 L2 F' R F L was an htr equivalent dr with an easy 7 mover for the htr in 13 lol (also has wrong slice in 17 but +3 opt, phew)

L' D' U2 F U'
B2 R2 F B L F R // 12 4b2
L2 F' L2 F2 D2 L2 F' R2 // 20

a plentiful harvest

waw

dr optimal except this is an htr equivalent extension of the 9+2, i did check this for htrs in 15 oof

tbh shouldve checked NISS rzps, but this finish eh

21 21 21 with the most cheap solutions bruh
anyway this got me 20.3 pb ao12 nice

nice
i didnt check any extensions for this 4 bad but i checked all extensions to (F' R' D2 L) 💀
