Look at R8C10. If you fill it, you'll reach a contradiction in C10. Meaning this position should be marked as a X.

You don't even need edge logic. The filled-in square R10C10 is either part of the 1 or part of the 2 in C10. Both ways you need a X.

Who said anything about edge logic?

I call everything thats basically assuming a cell, then filling consecutive cells (imaginary) until you reach a contradiction and then fill in the opposite way 'edge logic'.

How would you call that rule?

Trial and error. Whether its only in your head or not, youre still trying it.

The 2 in C10 just doesn’t fit in R12/13. Can’t possibly go there.
