mjbow2,

You made a lot of statements about US airspace and how you think we think it should be doine. That's of no interest here, we're talking about Australia...so I'll ignore those sections.

Why not A? Why not B? We could cover the entire continent with class B because it is 'safer' than E. Sounds ridiculous doesn't it?
Not really. But over the whole contineant? But as a replacement for E, yes, why not . Except for the exclusion of VFRs in A .. that could be an issue. But there's no reason we couldn't have B over D at Broome, for the same cost as E

Better still. Lets make it illegal for any aircraft to take off. This is the only way of guaranteeing no aircraft will ever collide with other traffic or the terrain.
Now you're just being silly
You know that all we want is for it to be safe as reasonably possible at a realistic price.

Hypothetically, would you be happy is we could provide C for the same price as E?

If not, why not?
If yes, can you provide us with an explanation of how you think it costs more to provide C than E.... because the Controllers have stated otherwise. Obviously you must have data that they are not privy to.
