Thanks, to you and the various authors, for this effort and for reducing the choice to a binary one. To me, this clarifies that it's a one-horse race. I just can't see any argument for the extra complexity, overhead cost, and risk of Scenario C. Obviously we would need to hack at the details of Scenario O, but for me there is no doubt that it's the way to go. (My only regret is that Scenario O text doesn't include a short risk analysis, like Sceanrio C.)
