Both of the current raters must have voted this to be "much guessing". This is surprising as the trend had been in the other direction recently.

This has one instance of advanced logic needed.

After Line Logic,
Internal edge logic on the 5 in r2:
Since there is a 4 in r3, the 5 cannot pass through more than four vertical clues greater than without making a conflict in r3. Therefore r2c19-20 must be white.
LL to finish
