In the center column rule section, this sentence:
: "However, there are very similar situations where additional off-center blocks will enable a wall kick, because the additional blocks are encountered by the search algorithm first. In the situations illustrated below, the upper occupied blocks are off-center and enable the kick even in the presence of occupied blocks in the center column."
is given. With just the above sentence, I would assume both clockwise and counterclockwise rotation should succeed when following the previously described algorithm. However, the examples actually disallow 4 additional rotations -- two additional counter-clockwise rotations in the first set of examples (the text says clockwise is allowed, '''but the previous algorithm description already allowed this'''!), and two additional clockwise rotations in the second set of examples (the text says counter-clockwise is allowed, '''but the previous algorithm description already allowed this'''!). Are those four "rotation not allowed" exceptions an exhaustive set of rotations that should be disallowed relative to the more generic text algorithm described earlier?

Everything is framed in terms of kicks. Where are we supposed to include other differences such as IRS behaviour? Eternal Heart let the player rotate during ARE so you could even double rotate for what is effectively a 180 IRS. -- colour_thief

To me it's not clear that IRS is part of ARS. Would it be better to specify this behavior in the page for CCS? --simonlc (talk) 20:25, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
