It's probably the math. There's got to be an edge case where it no longer works and the input is meticulous enough to put that to the test. It already tells how many times a single rotation passes zero.
![local pointing = 50
local zeroes = {0, 0}
for line in io.lines() do
local rotation = readrotation(line)
local destination = (pointing + rotation) % 100
local passes = math.abs((pointing + rotation) // 100)
-- Part 1 only checks when the dial _stops_ at 0.
if destination == 0 then
zeroes[1] = zeroes[1] + 1
elseif pointing ~=0 then
zeroes[2] = zeroes[2] + passes

I've been meaning to move off of GitHub for a while but the main alternatives are written in Go. That's an issue for someone who doesn't want to use Googware. Coïncidentally, I've been playing with Zig as well. Tempted to write my own single-user Git forge and a libgit2 binding to solve that need.

Maybe on second thought, perhaps it's about the first reading being confusing since you can't quite comprehend what's going on like the narrator. Then there's the realization at the end and then you need to read it again with the context.

Only one problem remains: how would I even write an MkXL document? And would it even be sane to or just throw "--luatex" into my Makefile?

"Brickmaker" and "Mason" seem to have a bit of overlap in the brick department.
Perhaps brickmaker can be replaced with something like an Acrobat to fill in a performing niche somewhat like the Illusionist(?) and Jester. Comes with a Pole (10ft), Rope (25ft), and a Smokebomb.

I've had success running some Maze Rats for a younger table. See if that's more up your alley.
