I'm trying to learn this. The last step is really cool, but I got confused on L5W and had to solve it intuitively. I also did a ton of alternate paths to get to the same result, which might be making Link, Zelda, and Ganon cry. Here's my attempt:

Edit: Oops, did L6W too late. I'd have to use different, slower algs if I do it there in this variant.

Much better example solve, now that I understand how to read the L5W alg sheet:
