There are 3 interesting things here:
1. When you create pairs of items by floor, you always have one item from one of the top floors and one item from one of the bottom floors.
2. With the top and bottom pairs, the item on the higher of the two floors originated from the lowest of the floors. The opposite is true with the rest of the floors.
3. Each pair consistently has a pair of stolen items that were originally separated by an odd number of floors.
If we needed to somehow "pair floors" together to get a solution, this would provide an interesting way to do it.
