This is basically the same strategy besides the fact Kent goes up and Wil goes down which marginally reduces reliability a little bit, but the bigger factor is Sain is untrained and can't have an Iron Lance to use vs the Door Key Soldier, which leaves a 10%~ chance the Soldier is alive. I'm pretty sure Kent needs the Armorslayer to get an efficient clear of C8 so it would still be worth taking an extra turn to secure it if he did miss. Kent can actually get 2HKO'd by the boss and doesn't have enough strength to finish him in a single hit after Erk's chip which is pretty sad too.
The rough calculations for the expected turncount are
90%~ chance for a 3 turn
10%~ chance for a 4 turn
The conditional mean clear turn is 3.1~
The conditional mean reset turn is 0
The reset penalty is 0
The expected turncount is 3.1~
Pessimistic Mode is a hack by Doesnt on feuniverse that only allows player character stats to increase if there is a 90% chance of them having increased by the level you have just attained. It is close to 0% growths in reliability but brings stat growths into the equation to reward training units and to help compare units better than by using averages.
