Many of the clues are still extremely awkward and clumsy even when reversed. Consider me unimpressed by the gimmick.

I actually enjoyed cracking the gimmick, despite the initial frustration. Fun puzzle.

Fun creative clues. I got the puzzle down to a handful of answers but didn’t have the patience to complete it, plus a couple of Naticks prevented me. Still found it enjoyable, many clues were genuinely tough but fair - which is something usually just said on reflex to justify overly vague cluing or a ton of trivia, but which actually applies to this puzzle’s clever misdirection. Hope to see more crosswords like this one.
