Enigmatic Variations N0. 1670

[Matakari]

Good morning, a stiff challenge with clues that I’d like to understand. Help with the following would be appreciated, thanks!

12a  Arithmetic logic unit oddly left out modern cleaner swift digital features? ( 6 ) : ???D??

16a  Hastily made mistake in July ( 5 )  : ?EN??

27a  Sign of class in the world is worth ( 5 ) : ????E

22d  Beer consumed by poet’s black, in no great demand ( 8 ) : ?A????KE

35d  Newly formed island map ultimately missed ( 4 ) : ??AS

PREAMBLE:Solvers must remove a superfluous word from each of 23 clues before solving. Taking either the first or last letter from these words, in clue order, indicates how to LOOP the remaining answers for entry, resolving any clashes. All entries in the final grid are real words.

16a Jerry(built/hastily made)= err (mistake,in) j(ul)y

[Neveracrossword]

Matakari, you have several mistakes...

12 Alulae

16 Jerry

22 Saleable

27 Value

35 Char

As ypu have only just started, there's no point in tackling the thematic elements just yet. There might be a few batches before that happens!

[JJ109]

22d if the surplus word is "no" then

Saleable= in great demand

ale (beer) (in) sable (black)

[Neveracrossword]

27 is Vale, world, with U, sign of class (Upper class)

22 Sable, poet's black, with Ale, beer inside

35 Char(t), map, ultimately missed (lose the last letter)
