It just seems to me that not opening the MS would be an unnecessary gamble. If you open and lose control...by by NO and BR. If you don't open it...you could still lose NO and BR. If you do open it...you could save NO and BR or it might not be enough.
The only scenario that has the best chance of saving BR and NO is opening it and hoping it is enough.
that's just my uneducated opinion.

Big difference is that if you lose control of the river and it changes course BR and NOLA stay dry. And I honestly think dredging could be done to keep the cities working due to the lower sediment deposits.

That is a huge wide flat area where Old River floods. If not for the basin, there would just be a normal levee there. If the river wants to go somewhere, it's ORCS.
