I spent an obscene amount of time miscounting the qts and being very confused as to why the mental swap wasn't aligning with the qt count

I got to DR on another eo but I can't read my own working so I have no clue what happened with that one

funnily enough I actually found this first and if it had been a more straightforward htr case I might have just locked into it. Luckily I checked RZP the other way

(D2 B2 D' B2 D F2 U' R2 F2 R2 U') //htr through some trash 4b2 2e into 0c0 2e solution, then terrible finish so i gave up 

another htr solution I got was through a comm, 
(R2 L2 U2 F2 D2 R L' F2 R' L U' L2 F2 U') //htr but I decided it was too long. what sucks now is that the finish was significantly easier because it was 6c1 but it cancelled well into a 4c case I knew how to solve
=> 
(R2 F2 U2 R2 B2 R2 B2 R2 B2) //LS f+g 

widen U2 in HTR solution and the U2 in the FR solution 
=> (R2 L2 D2 B2 D2 R' L B2 R L' U' R2 B2 U' L2 B2 D2 R2 B2 R2 B2 R2 B2)

I think there's a good lesson to be learnt here about time management and managing my expectations. I think I got to this DR within 20 min but because of inexperience I spent so long trying to see if I could do some NISS shenanigans to get the double J shape case and wasted a ton of time. Easy PR mean down the drain but I'm sure I will improve
