To whom it may concern:

I had some ideas about this puzzle.  You had better ones.  Your suggestion to use a single bonder seemed impractical, even impossible at first.  But your notes guided me, even while you had no way to design a solution yourself.  In your notes, you rejected layouts that would hit 54, while I was struggling with a 56.  In the end, y'all made a 55 happen.

I toiled for a few hours over your design, finding cycles here and there, but you were the one to claim an understanding of the area primary.  And for that, I thank you.

With the single bonder, y'all need to craft bricks (imagine, bricks).  Then these bricks connect to the whole using combined motion of 3 arms.    Y'all are confident there is no solution with fewer than 3 arms with this area.

A debonder helps y'all handle lone atoms that aren't quicksilver.  This is occasionally useful, though just as often it turns out to save movements to keep things entangled.

If someone has lower area primary, you will be surprised.  I, however, don't know what it is like to be an area main so I'll just enjoy the show.
