the only thing
an essential bus gives me is a list of items that I do not want to
shed
 
how many micro-processors in your panel?
micro-processors have an ugly habit of rebooting when you remove power, even for a moment.
 
cross-tie doesn't help that problem.  by the time you turn on the cross-tie you are looking at seconds to minutes to get back whatever function those micro-processors were doing.
 
so you end up with some sort of diode setup.   ...which will end up being 2 diodes per important box or
2 diodes per essential bus.
 
automatic also useful when you are in a high workload situation, which you would be.
