I'm not entirely sure whether European ships even matter here, but if you're suggesting that fleet speed affects branching here, you're not 100% wrong.

Thing is, it's possible for a fast fleet to go I or J (I don't think anyone reported using slow fleet, and that's probably because they want to avoid node B if offered the choice). It's random, for certain. It may very well be possible that slow fleets will likely send you to J whereas fast fleets will likely send you to I, but you aren't 100% guaranteed I or J based on your fleet speed. Praying to RNG is still necessary here.
