It seems to me that the deduction in red is incorrect. There are two alternate choices for (1) in [b9]/[r9].

It is possible to remove <1> from r7c8 (I won't say how except that it's not a chain). Then, arkietech's loop works via r6c8 rather than r9c9 ... though that's not how I solved it.

Also, shouldn't it be "[r5c4]-4-[r8c4]"? (I find Eureka notation less confusing.)
