b. it's all but impossible to count cards in major casinos these days. too many decks in play
You're smarter than this. It's much better to count on a 6 deck shoe as there are not enough cards delt on a single or double deck shoe for the count to get high enough to experience any positive expected value.
The amount of cards in play - single/double deck vs 6 deck shoe has nothing to do with the level of difficulty of counting cards. And you are literally just adding and subtracting the number 1 over and over again.

yeah but adding decks increases the variance exponentially
the fundamental +/- system works and may work over 1M hands, but it's not an effective system for an individual in real terms
that's why even with playing perfectly and the +/- system, the casino still has an edge
