I'm wondering why somebody added a new answer to an almost-three-year-old question, while providing nothing not covered in other answers, while also not even bothering to explain their answer (though the edit helped significantly).
Yes, this is one of the 12 solutions mentioned in my answer above. I don't know if I'd call this an "easier solution", but it is definitely easier to remember. :)
I just wanted to mention that with the submission of (Reti43's answer)[puzzling.stackexchange.com/a/31429/11], I moved the accepted answer to his. The reason I did this is because I felt that this answer does a very good job describing how to translate the problem from alphametic to algebraic, but that his answer does a better job describing how to take that algebraic and solve it. However, I wanted to make a clear point: Both are very good answers.
This is exactly the sort of general solution I was hoping to get when I posted this question. Feel free to post an answer with generalized solutions like that! While the brute-force approach in the accepted answer works, "intuitive guessing" strategies are ones I find easier to use.
