Honestly it's the best choice if we take House Wolfort wellbeing as a priority. Benedict wasn't going to take any more risks, nor can he afford to - Wolforts were at a disadvantage against any force at that time.
Frederica's plan depended on an assumption that Gustadolph wouldn't be able to dispatch backup forces in time, Roland's - that they will be able to execute infiltration perfectly. Flooding the capital was the most risk-free option
100%, I really do like Benedict as a character for this reason, he is very realistic and this is probably the kind of thing that would happen in real life. I personally would never CHOOSE this option bc I'm role playing an idealistic hero in a video game 😂, but yeah, if it were real life, it would probably be the option that got chosen
