My personal devices are a Fairphone with e/OS and a Purism laptop. The laptop probably fails no. 3, but they do fulfill 0.-2. imho. There are alternatives. And for the prices I suspect that there is not enough demand for prices to come

Search for 'minimal Sudoku' I think it's 17 given numbers and try those on your solver. I wrote a backtracking solver which tried on the fields with least possibilities first. It needed considerable time for these puzzles.

Authentication with a SAML provider can make this a pain in the ass. Especially if you don't have control over the provider.
