If you couldn't solve the problem and looked up the solution, you should still add the partial progress you made and give your guesses about why that's a useful step to take (e.g. any heuristics/pattern matching that you used); these kinds of "motivation" for certain steps are typically lacking from solutions you can find, and so will be especially helpful to include for your future self (who may forget these things when re-doing the problem).

(This also helps because now all the cards in the main math problems deck will be not-new, which means burying them will work as expected. In the past, I've experienced weird issues when burying new cards, where they get sent to the very end of the new cards queue or something like that.)
