IF all six rams are closed it would slow the flow greatly no matter the condition of the seals. IF this is true it would be easy to stab another BOP stack on top of the bad one. It also begs the question of why it did not close before.
Given what has been printed I am greatly worried about a flow, of some amount, outside the casing, THOUGH I do NOT see it in the few ROV pictures we have.

Having the Rams closed id defiantly a plus for the idea of stabbing another BOP on top of the one already in place.
If there is indeed flow outside the the casing the problems are serious and many.
