Note that there are only 1s left for vertical clues
Rows 12-13 can be finished with two bits of smile logic
Now rows 5-6 can be finished with alternating-smile logic (just like smile logic - the clues will only fit one way due to crowding)
NB: When you find all ones in one direction, smile/alternating logic is something to be on the watch for!
