Thought Experiment

Constructor's Note
This is more of a proof-of-construct than anything else - some testing has revealed that it's pretty unsolvable (but it was fun to make!). Feel free to Reveal what you must, but don't be surprised if your answers crossing the central entry are wrong...

    Amazing! I went with SCHRODINGER right off the bat and I think it made it pretty solveable - only one I couldn't get was COLS. In any case, super impressive grid

      lol this was so cool - wasn't expecting a triple schrodinger at all... i got schrodinger and i kept trying to make alivededcat a thing... Ida, I do, IDE so creative

        I found it pretty solveable. I ended up second guessing a lot with my answers. But this was cool!

          the whole time i thought it was SCHRODINGER/DEADORALIVE and was confused about some clues not fitting 😅 nice one

            such a cool puzzle! my mind was blown when i realized there were not two, but three possibilities for each middle answer

              Wait - what? I'm going back in! Meantime, what is COLS?

                abbreviation for columns, i think! (hence "well-organized")

                  That's the one. My propensity for spreadsheets is showing! Probably the weakest triple definition, but you can't have everything.

              Wow! Very cool.
