Looking at the plates, 10/28 has minima 300-1 and 600-1 respectively.
The procedure for runwya 10 is to climb runway heading to 2300 before
proceeding on course. The MSA for the area is 4200. How do you get
from the DP to the nearest Victor airway safely when it's 300 and 1?
There never has been a requirement that you can depart when the conditions
are at minimums. There are lots of airports where you can get in but you
can't get out until the weather lifts.
Morris is speaking of the takeoff minimums, not the landing minimums.
Takeoff minimums should permit a safe takeoff.
There's no requirement to reach the MSA, though. That's only applicable if
you get lost. If you fly the DP and keep climbing while you intercept your
airway, you should be safe (though of course it's a good idea to verify that
with the Detroit sectional chart).
