I'm guessing because it exercised your "shiny new" subroutine?

Peter,

Nice move on the AUR(34) using the mixed internal/external sis.

I usually check for AURs early in my sequence and also noticed the AUR(34) but used all internal sis where (9)r46c3-(9=4)r2c3 making r2c3=4.

A couple of BUG-lites are in r89 that provided useless deletions, but were interesting to work with.

I also made a second pass and found this two stepper.

(8=6)r6c7-(6=1)r6c5-r1c5=r1c2-(1=9)r4c2-r4c8=(9-8)r6c8; r6c8<>8

anp(34=6)r46c9-(6=1)r6c5-(1=7)r1c5-r2c4=r2c8-r3c9=(7-4)r8c9; r8c9<>4=7

Yes, my "shiny new" subroutine had a ball with this puzzle.

Code:

 |  2      4      58     |  367    35679  369    |  68     678    1      |
 +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
 # 70 eliminations remain

Single-stepper:

Code:
(9=7)r3c2 - (7=6)r3c9 - r6c9 =UR= (9)r46c3  =>  r2c3,r4c2<>9

Two-stepper:

Code:
 r2c9    2-String Kite                   <> 7    r8c4

(9)r2c6 =UR= (7)r2c4 - [ (7=1)r1c5, (7=6)r2c8 ] - (16=9)r2c6

I found a single-stepper variation on the two-stepper:

Code:
(9)r2c6   -or-

(7)r2c4 - [ (7=1)r1c5, (7=6)r2c8 ] - (16=9)r2c6   -or-

(7)r8c4 - r8c9 = r3c9 - (7=6)r2c8 - als(6=9)b2q246
