Nov 5, 2020 at 9:11 comment added msh210 @Stiv, the latter.
Nov 5, 2020 at 7:38 comment added Stiv @msh210 This is happening to me a lot this week...! Is the initial observation at all important or just another freak coincidence?!
Nov 5, 2020 at 7:37 comment added Stiv @GarethMcCaughan Thanks - my assumption there was that was to steer us away from trying to form a group of 4 musical note homophones out of RE, ME, SEW and (insert another one here). Never mind though - back to the drawing board!
Nov 5, 2020 at 5:57 comment added msh210 +1. As noted, this doesn't match a couple of the hints — and it's not my intended answer. Perhaps it's time for a stronger hint.
Nov 5, 2020 at 2:09 comment added Gareth McCaughan This is most ingenious. It doesn't seem to explain the observation in hint 1 that RE-ROBE could have been RE instead if RE hadn't been the name of a musical note.
Nov 5, 2020 at 1:01 comment added Jeremy Dover According to QAT, you can put rot13(gryy (gryn) naq yrr (yrn) vagb tebhc 2, zbir frj (fnj) gb tebhc 3, naq zbir xb (xbn) gb tebhc 1).
Nov 5, 2020 at 0:41 comment added PDT If this was the intended answer, I would be disappointed.
Nov 5, 2020 at 0:37 comment added Stiv Just noticed after posting that this doesn't satisfy the third hint, so I must have something in the wrong group, but so much of this fits (including the first two hints) that I feel this must be incredibly close to the bullseye...! :)
