(NOTE 1: more logical possibilities does not mean something is tougher, especially since there may be alternate clues elsewhere, so this is only meant as an estimate. Some areas' themes are more restrictive than others'.)
(NOTE 2: Store T's theme helps cut possibilities, and H's theme should be a big hint)
(NOTE 3: Some maximum averages may be higher than minimum averages due to side quests or LLPs that are easier than the main puzzles.)
