Taca

I was looking for old Taca puzzles and found the TVC 20 contest from 2016..
https://logicmastersindia.com/lmitests/?test=TVC20
The rules look normal, but both of the puzzles break when I try to solve them.
For example, in the top-right corner of this puzzle:
- 12 can't go in a corner, so shade the corner cell
- 6 can't go on the edge, so shade the edge cell
- 6 is not the same as 14, so shade the 14 cell
- but now we can't shade the 12 cell (because that makes a shaded 2x2) and we can't leave it unshaded (because it has 3 shaded cells next to it).
What am I doing wrong?
