Here is what I think that is very conflicting in regards to getting BA and doing SA. Completing SA guarantees you a BA, while, completing a NA gives you a chance of BA. Chances increase per stage and 5-3 have a pretty high chance but still not a guarantee. The conflicting part is SA sacrifice a lot of Vit due to more rooms and higher Vit cost. 5-3 have less rooms and it is a little more than half the Vit cost compare to SA but there is a chance you will miss a BP and you need to do a do-over, costing more than SA. However, getting a BP on every try 5-3 (which means you are really lucky) will put the Vit cost down.

In addition, you pretty much face a level 500 FAW in every room for SP but you normal face a AW and occasional level 300 FAW in 5-3. It is up to you which is more beneficial.
