4.5: Drawing Conclusions
After the puzzle has been worked through, you should have a useable solution. This is also when some missed references in the listing become more clear. You can now draw some conclusions about that puzzle, whether it was fun, tedious, or even made no sense at all.

Now you've just gotta be determined to get this far. You won't give up until you reach the end, using any means necessary. Well, it shouldn't be from a previous solver in this case. Because then you'd only be proving that you know how to ask for help. Time to step up your game.

(Note: Before starting, you must solve the prerequisite puzzles first, beginning with PG 1.0: Certitudity.)
