This is a bit different than #33. White now has ten checkers in the zone, and after entering blue will have 2 blots for white to shot at. Trice described these situations as like having a mountain about to crash down on your head.
So, here the tempo hit seems like the way to go - make white use up half her roll entering instead of pointing on blue's head. Also, blue has 5 checkers on the six in this position instead of four, and only three on the midpoint instead of 5 making unstacking the six more of a priority.
