When I visited the Gettysburg battlefield, I took a long and hard look at both the Round Tops. Little RT had a panoramic view of the entire area and was a critical point, to be sure. Big RT I don't perceive as being any better than LRT for the same purpose, plus it's heavily wooded thus getting any significant artillery up there was out of the question. LRT would have blocked the line of sight of BRT to the rest of the Union line, in any case.

This will be a point for discussion whenever tactics are talked about. What-If ......
