I got the same. How do you show an xyz-wing in eureka notation?
Code:

xyz wing 467
(47)r1c4-(47=6)r1c5-(6=7)r5c5 => r3c5<>7

I'd write one pincer and the pivot as an ALS, e.g.

xyz-wing: (7=46)r1c45 - (6=7)r5c5 => r3c5<>7

I'd redo your notation a bit:

(47=6)r1c45-(6=7)r5c5 => r3c5<>7

I'd also consider using a format that I've seen PeterJ use in recent months. It is longer, but it comes closer to representing an XYZ-Wing IMO.

(7)r1c5 = XY-Wing[ (7=4)r1c4 - (4=6)r1c5 - (6=7)r5c5 ] => r3c5<>7

It represents (7)r1c5 being treated as a fin candidate. If the fin candidate isn't true, then the XY-Wing must be true.
