Nearly complete, but I don’t really understand last part of the rubric ‘one solution finally and another first and last’, or why 19A should start with ‘M’ if we’re ‘Enzed’. Grateful for some light!

I’m following this thread for the same reason! I’ve got a full grid but I’d like to know why it is like it is, so to speak.

There is no answer that could begin with one letter, so it starts with an M and ends with that letter.

Because of the above, Doc didn't want to confuse because one themed answer begins and ends with the same letter

FleshpotsOfDevon

Got it! Right, where’s me stamps ;)

JJ109

I should say - there is no themed answer that Doc could fit in his grid that began with a certain letter.

JJ109

--And one answer 12a starts with a themed letter and ends with a themed letter, and these are the only instances that those letters are themed
