Gahhhh, I keep forgetting about this, sorry. (There has to be a way to
tell my compiler to catch this, right? It's pretty embarrassing to get
called out for this twice...)

Got it.

Now that I think about it, dropping an `i = j - 1` into the inner loop
right before the break should work:

+                             else {
+                                     i = j - 1;
+                                     break;
+                             }

Nope, that's pretty much it. Just me overthinking the problem.
