I find your analogy very helpful and inspiring. Thank you for posting it!
I have the same interpretation that you do of Ra's advice. As I read the L/L Research material, I interpret as saying that first, we need to open any blocked chakras. After they are adequately open at all, then it is then important to develop them in a balanced way. With your analogy, one over-developed chakra could be like one crop valve that distorts the flow, causing turbulence for the other irrigation lines.
I believe that opening the lower three chakras would be equally important for both STS and STO. The difference is what happens at the next higher chakra. STO would try to open the green ray next, and have all balanced; while STS devalues the green ray, and tries to skip over it to the higher centers.
