Representing Westchester Library System, I tested this and confirm that it works as advertised.

Our org structure is composed of a single consortia with single outlet libraries and libraries with branches.

The "holds chase home lib patrons" prioritizes item lib A=patron lib A holds regardless of request date, or other holds for pickup at lib B, when a lib A item is returned to lib B and a lib A patron has a hold for pickup there.

This BHSSO will also prioritize holds for branch libraries, matching branch A patron holds with lib A items when there is no lib A patron hold.

When there are no lib A or branch A patron holds, a lib A item will fill holds by opportunistic capture or request date.
