102 is a nice mutate with nice correction play of black Vao and mutual obstructions. Neat idea demonstrating the use of Chinese pieces! I think Polish twin is just a short-cution of “Duplex with board turned 180 deg. for the second solution”: !
I like 102 with multiple Chinese effects shown. Especially mutual immobilizations of P and VA in both set plat and solution are great. It is a pity that 2.LEa1# is unchanged.
