    An impressive feat of construction... but as a result I only got to see half the clues while solving... and I guess unfortunate fill like 3d is inevitable... Anyway thanks for the puzzle

      Thanks, Merlin. Yes, there are downsides to density. I definitely wanted to give it a go, though.

        Still… impressive construction, and a fun challenge too. Struggled with 4d even after the grid was filled… turned out to be a head slapper 🤣
