The missed approach case has always existed, of course, with departures from either runway going both north and south depending on the destination/SID, and the potential for conflict with a GA on the other runway being taken into account.

What would be new is sustained simultaneous departures from two runways where significantly more than 50% of them would be on the southern SIDS. That will be interesting.
