if both people do A, they block each other's view of on coming traffic. that doesn't happen if both do B

B is correct because of the direction of traffic you have to look into when turning

B for sure... and if the cross at the median’s light is Red, I would ALWAYS go through it while checking the cross traffic, like it was a stop sign... Absolutely NO sense in blocking the “cut through”

B, but no one does it because people are stupid.

B but you're likely to get T-boned if you do it

You don’t have to wrestle with these difficult decisions. You just have to worry about how to get the soy burgers away from those pesky homeless.

A blocks both drivers' view of oncoming traffic.
and yet, is the preferred procedure in BR traffic.

pretty much all of La. But, yeah I see it a lot in BR.

It’s B obviously but if you actually try to do it correctly, you will get blasted by the idiot coming from the other side since they assume A.
It’s never enforced by cops so people don’t give a crap.

Not only is it not enforced, but there aren't usually stripes or markers identifying one cars rightful territory from the others. It's a free for all out there in the median..

We also need a lesson on round-a-bouts

The answer is B.
Unless you are La DOTD, then you make it any way you want.
In South Lafourche, DOTD started construction on eliminating many of these cross overs along 3235.
In the process, they closed the normally safe intersections and forced detours to unlit crossovers while construction progressed. Instead of pacing construction and doing and completing each intersection, they closed one and did about 75% of the work and then moved on to another intersection. So now about 3 months in, drivers are forced to use unsafe intersections DOTD did not want us to use in the first place.
