I sort of like it when people make nonsensical arguments. It is easier to point out their errors tho sometimes it gets to the point of being stupid.
I still have little doubt that Charleston Harbor was the most important one in the South for various reasons. As I said earlier, no country would allow a hostile nation to control their most important harbor.
New Orleans and Norfolk both had serious weaknesses. The Mississippi was controlled for a great deal of it’s length by the North. It was vulnerable. Norfolk because of it’s location was also vulnerable. Charleston held out to the very last.
It was the South’s most important harbor.
