If it’s what I think it is, you’ve got two pieces adjacent that need to
swap right? If you just do one twist of that cell to solve one, you’ll then
have three unsolved. Then it’s just a 3-cycle.

For example, if IF and IR need to swap, do the equivalent of an IU twist,
and that will solve IF, then you have IL-IR-IB as a 3-cycle. Ignore that if
it doesn’t make any sense.
