How this board opens
The overlap rule is stingy here: one sweep of it across every row and column yields 26 of the 225 cells, 12%, so most of this board has to be argued for rather than read off. The most generous opening is column 1, which gives up 11 cells on its own. Straight line logic carries it to 69 cells and then stalls, so the last 156 need cross-referencing between a row and a column that share a cell. The finished picture fills 79 cells, and the longest unbroken run anywhere in the clues is 13.
