Got it!
whenever I try one of these puzzles, I'm reminded how 1) my brute force/breadth first search algorithm is weak 2) when I try to focus consciously on it, I run out of spare power and I simultaneously stop being able to see pipes something I always have to work on.
Now that's a long human made 5x5 *chef's kiss*
god DAMN this was hard. 20 minutes, I think like 3-4 2 offs and hard to envision major reroutes.
3 2 offs, and then the solve that feels like it outsmarted all of them!
It felt completely impossible to optimize until I had an idea.
Pipe!
