ew +3

I actually wrote a different +3 slice fix on the answer sheet at first, then thought this one was a +2 and overwrote the old solution.

Realised after the attempt that I didn't check the AUF variation (same as blockyfish insertion), which gives +1…

didn't find a +0/+1 on this (only found a +3 sub-hour and a +2 shortly after)

This was the first DR I checked and I filed away the 23 LS because it didn't seem likely to +0 (and indeed it does not).
