It is easier to use advanced algsets like LTCT, T2C, LTEF, full floating in 3BLD as we do not have to encode information for a long time and the cost of messing the solve is less, as a DNF does not affect a bo3 result.

On the other hand, going safer in exec in multi-blind is a good approach as it makes sure accuracy is more at the cost of few seconds. Also, we need specialized letter pairs and images for these cases which makes it a lot more work to inculcate these advanced stuff in actual attempts.

My question is the following,
When is it actually worth to invest time in making advanced algset work in multi-blind once we are comfortable using it in 3BLD?
Is it worth the risk, as the cost of DNF in multi-blind is high, 2 potential points lost for each mistake.
 
I have observed that there are lingering thoughts if I do a first pass trace with some advanced stuff in mind. This kinda disturbs the flow and it is better to just keep it simple for multi-blind as a DNF is quite costly to the overall result yo.

A well seasoned MBLDer can maybe think of doing advanced stuff and just move on quickly on the trace of next cube.
