somewhere around iteration 30 i got on the trail of that clean as hell assembly method for one half, and dropped 50 or so points within a few hours of optimizing that. i feel like this approach doesnt get much better than this anymore. surely sub-350's good for this anyways, right?

i hope i get a good rank on this solely because with my current tournament record itd be funny to establish myself as being very good exclusively at vibes-based metrics in snowflake-shaped puzzles
