    How the optimiser finds the answer
    1
    List every set of open floors

    For each number of floors to close, it lists every combination, cheapest floor space first. That is at most 252 sets per count.

    2
    Keep the least space that works

    The first sets that seat everyone under the rules set the least floor space for that count. The solver proves the other sets impossible; it does not guess.

    3
    Place teams with the fewest moves

    Among those sets, integer optimisation (HiGHS) finds the placement that moves the fewest people. It proves the result optimal and reruns live inside this file.
