Maryland

If anything, DE should be merged into MD, not the other way around.
Clinched, minus I-93 (I'm missing a few miles and my file is incorrect)

Traveled, plus US 13, 44, and 50, and several state routes

I will be in Burlington VT for the eclipse.

Not a bad idea, and it could become known as Durham County, Maryland like it was in the late 1600s.

That would make retroceding DC to Maryland look simple by comparison.

That would be funded by Canada, but would probably be numbered I-98 or I-595.

That would work out better than simply calling MD "West Delaware."

Yes, and a lot more believable (i.e., perhaps a possibility for a thread title someday).

Most 2dis violate standards at one point or another:

10, 20, 40: at-grade intersections in very rural areas
93: one lane in each direction through Franconia Notch
95: outdated design through NYC; several others throughout the Northeast also have outdated designs
5, 64: drawbridges
