these notes were originally going to be a semi-shitpost about the 'waste chain' at the top of the puzzle because i didn't think there was anything else noteworthy about this solve. but then i discovered the majesty of arm 5. the fact that it can handle 3 outputs at once is incredible and saved me 4 instructions!
it feels hard to bring this down any lower, but i also said the same thing about my previous solve 7 instructions ago, so who knows what else my constant poking will uncover
i do also want to share that this is my first tournament and i am so excited to be here! it snowed the day this puzzle was revealed and that was truly magical
