    Impossible to change waterline tiles?

    This is a wonderful idea of course and is pretty much what we said to each other after we realized it was wrong and were told we couldn’t fix it without redoing it all. We were like well, we won’t like it during the day but it’ll be pretty at night. And then it all went sideways again…
