Actually that map is not bad. I would’ve just had 7 take in Montgomery and basically shift 4, 5, and 3 counterclockwise to adjust.

Or just exchange it for Shelby County.

There was an actual map that split no counties. The two highest BVAP districts were just short of 50% and would likely be performing Democratic districts.

I would suggest that the person pretending to be a friend of the court adjust the map to use whole counties and report the relative populations.

An adjustment of the Gingles Test would be the drawing of compact districts that are performing for the minority population.

An advantage of the proposed map is that AL-1 and AL-2 are not bleached like they are in maps proposed by the plaintiffs.
Which county(ies) is Jefferson County paired with here?
