Regarding a MLO panel versus a panel with a main breaker: Isn't the

That requirement is for killing all the service conductors to a
building, so it applies at the main disconnect. It doesn't apply for
subpanels. It would apply for a feeder to a detached garage, which
could terminate in a MLO panel as long as there are 6 or fewer
breakers in it.

two things around here ALL basement outlets must be GFCI protected.
had big hassle with two different buyers at home sale time, I upgraded
to GFCIs....


The NEC does not require outlets in finished parts of a basement to be GFCI
protected

with basement space install some ingress egress windows which will not
only add light and air but qualify the added space as bedrooms, very
valuable when its time to sell!
