Today's Puzzle:

Matt's on a roll here with another exceptionally clever puzzle. Would this have been easier if we've used Aad Van Der Wetering's geometry gymnastics?

Rules:

Normal sudoku rules apply.

Digits separated by a white dot are consecutive. Digits separated by a black dot are in a 1:2 ratio. Digits in a grey circle are odd. Digits marked in a circle appear in its surrounding cells.

Adjacent digits on a green line must differ by at least 5. Adjacent digits on an orange line must differ by at least 4.

Digits on a grey 'between' line must have values between the digits on the circled ends of the line.

For clarity due to the shading variance, the ends of the 'between' lines are also grey circles (meaning they are odd).
