Your solution is a lot more elegant than mine. I leave 4 corners, so two insertions; while you only leave 3 corners and a single insertion. Sweet insertion too, cancels 4 moves!

Thank you for the insight, you have taught me much about FMC. :tu

Without insertions:
L2 F' B R2 D R B' D' L D L' U2 L F2 U2 F U L' U L U2
L2 F' B R2 D R B' D' L D L' U2 L F2 U2 F L' B U2 B' U' B U' B' U2 L

Identical up to the last few moves. I used 5 moves to leave L4C, you used 10 moves (conjugated antisune?) to leave L3C. I canceled 5 moves of 16 from two insertions; you canceled 4 moves of 8.
I. Must. Get. Better.

Going on a 125 km walk, so I will post what I have done so far. I am bringing 2-3-4-5-6-7 with me so I can continue practising and I think I will have time to edit this post later with more results (7, 3bld, 3mts, relays)

comment: Done with synergistic memo, but trying to go a bit faster than my comfort zone, at the suggestion of Amos. This is my new pb average of 5. I can't believe I'm so close to sub-11 average of 5, it blows my mind. If the DNF solve would have been a success (off by two centers, and I know what my error was!) then this average would have been sub-11. I will definitely continue to try for it, it's exciting to suddenly be improving again!
