Veteran's Day or Saturday busier at MK?

I am having a hard time trying to decide which day to have as a resort day and which day to do an additional MK day. We arrive in the late morning on Veteran's Day (11/11). In the past, we hopped on the monorail on arrival day to MK and squeezed in a long afternoon and evening visit. The crowd calendars disagree about a couple of the days on our trip, and it's making it difficult to know what to do. Both easywdw and Touring plans say Veteran's Day will be either a 5 or a 6. But the following Saturday (four days later) easywdw has MK at a 5 and as a not recommended park, but Touring Plans has it at a 2 and recommends it! That's a big difference!

So I guess I'm wondering what you think will be worse: MK on Veteran's Day or on the following Saturday. We do have another mid-week MK day built in to our trip. All of this, of course, wouldn't be a decision we'd have to make right now if I didn't have to book FP+ or dining--would much rather just wait and see how we feel.

I can't imagine why Touring Plans would recommend MK on a Saturday; Saturdays are the busiest day of the week at MK. I would definitely not go on a Saturday if you have other options.

Thanks! It is surprising why Touring Plans lists it at a 2, but it is mid November, so I was curious if a federal holiday might actually be worse than a fall Saturday.
