If you were the pilot with the low fuel and had declared an
emergency, would you want a downwind straight in or an
expedited downwind and base/final if both took the same
time? What if the straight in takes 30 seconds longer while
traffic clear your flight path?


The straight-in is always quicker.



Have all pilots turned blonde?


You just don't get it. This is not a matter of opinion. You're simply
incorrect.
