(dis)respect for the 11-point?

Having read the responses/votes so far, I see some sentiment for 24/20(2), 11/7(2). IMO, if you're going to leave Stick's blot on the 5-point alone, then you definitely should keep the 11-point, blocking it (and the anchor he might make). If 24/20(2) is right and you're not going to hit loose 13/5*, I think 13/9(2) is its mate. Rather than trading the best blocking point (for blocking White's 20-point) for a worse one, you actually add another good blocking point.

I'm not changing my vote (even if allowed) because I'm bloodthirsty, but if my doubles pard twisted my arm into not hitting, I would insist upon 13/9(2).
