If the river became saline all the way up to Natchez,
Being as the new mississippi estuary would never get above sealevel, I doubt it goes above Gramercy.

It wouldn't 100% divert, there would still be a substantial amount of water flowing down the old channel. I'm from Concordia parish so I'm pretty familiar with the control structure.
Correct. And NO would become a salt water port.
If you want to stop Louisiana’s coastal erosion allow the River to change course. The silt would spread out across the coast.

To say any one thing would stop coastal loss shows ignorance of the myriad of issues that cause LA to lose land. Keeping loss from progressing further would take monumental interventions throughout the Mississippi watershed. To reverse loss is, imo, an impossibility given the inability of America to make the hard decisions necessary.
