This is actually a good logic puzzle. I used basically the same logic, but my reasoning was this:

The left 2 in r8 can only go in [c3-6]. If it were in c3-4, it would create a conflict in r9. Therefore the range is narrowed to [c4-6] and so r8c5 must be blue.
LL finishes the left X.
Then the same thing on the right one.
