I will work on it all day tomorrow. I've been meaning to for a while
now, just putting it off. Now I suppose I have no excuse.

I think I would probably prefer to work B1 on the R side, but that
doesn't matter. In the end, I would like to be flexible about which
side I build on, as long as I keep them on L and R. Building both
blocks simultaneously will be easier this way.

While I'm terrible at normal Petrus solving, I've noticed that when I
can orient all of my edges for ZBF2L solving early either using an
edge or a ZB trick on the 3rd pair, finishing the F2L using only RU
moves flies. All of my sub 14.5 solves have been done this way.

Being able to see all the pieces you need to finish the cube is part
of what prompted me to start looking into placing DB while orienting.
Most of the time, I can see which L5E alg I need by looking at 2 or 3
edges on U. That's handy.
