curve B
B1--------------------------B0
You define distances:
|A0 B0|
|A0 B1|
|A1 B0|
|A1 B1|
And find the smallest one. Then, based on the number of the shortest distance:
Flip A, Leave B
Flip A, Flip B
Leave A, Leave B
Leave A, Flip B
A more advanced metric would be to create all 4 blends, then pick the one that is shortest. Maybe that works better for what you want, maybe not.

me in 19 different pipeline components. Marginally better, but I'll still need to do this operation approx. 80 times...gulp.
Here's a wishlist request for David: expose string inputs in the Geometry Pipeline for Layer and Name. If I had that, I could change one string to swap my whole geometry set! (My layers have names like "B1 red rail", "B1 blue rail" etc., then the next time I'll want "B2 red rail", "B2 blue rail" etc.)
BTW, I'm happy to script something in C# if it will help: maybe I could write something like the Geometry Pipeline that takes a string input for layer name? Hmmm...
…
ide into 80 branches, and 80 outputs of explode and 80 dispatches - its my nightmare. Is there any way to do this with parametric Number of brunches? …
