It's not that thin. Anthony will be fine. I'd drill all three in the bottom. Well technically, I'd just do two and go for Herbie because, why not?

If you put a 45 degree elbow at the top of the first emergency drain, and use 45s on the rest of that line instead of 90s, the drain will be quieter. There will probably always be a trickle going down the emergency line.
