Nice video! I want to see the next one where you discuss the mechanism, but I can't seem to find that one :/

Wouldn't the OH- attack directly to form a carboxylic acid which then gets further deprotonated to a carboxylate? Or would the Claisen reaction happen? How would we tell if which reaction would happen?
