Maybe we should all cooperate and find the absolutely smallest mouse

Hmmm, the estimate time is something between 10^8 to 10^12 years ... the prunnig is probably not powerful enough

Fortunately, human creativity and intelligence still often enough beats computing power:
Nevertheless, my actual solution to challenge 'Surely Smallest Mouse' was as follows:
However, I still have no idea how to save another instruction to solve challenge 'Surely Smallester Mouse'. Any helpful hints you could give me, without giving too much away?

There are all clues already here. See our previous posts (OK not exactly the last one of me).

I am happy I was able to help
. ... May be we should remove the hints?
... OK the last piece I had to discover is already replaced in your post by "Er... you did not see that. "
