Comments on the clue
1.A bit too contrived, especially as you have to add the letter "E" and then subtract it again.
2.Not a very convincing surface!
3.I like it, but it's pretty unsolvable.
4.A little too much subtraction going on for my liking makes it a little convoluted. Maybe personal preference on this one. Nice surface.
