Sounds like something NetworkManager should be doing by itself:  When
supplied with two like-named SSIDs, pick the one with the highest data
rate and signal strength.  And, I supposed, there'd need to be a bit of
fuzzy logic to arbitrate when the faster one is a bit weaker than the
slower one.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
