When a digit can go only in the same four columns across four rows, no other cell in those columns can hold it.

Pick a digit and find four rows where it has two to four places, all within the same four columns. The four columns are used up by those rows. Remove the digit from the other cells of the four columns. Swap rows and columns for the other direction.

In hints

The hint first gives a direction: those four rows. Blue ground marks the rows, blue marks where the digit can go, and orange strikes remove it from the other cells of the four columns.
