Chance a sad Penn deferred student for WashU (ED2), premed. [1590 SAT, 97.2 GPA]

Having just gone through this process with my son, who was admitted to his ED school a week ago and who has a profile similar to yours, I’m also of the opinion that it might be worth the risk to forego the ED2 app to Wash U (where you would almost certainly be admitted ED2) and let the RD round play out. This said, if you really like Wash U and prefer the high likelihood of getting into a specific school over letting the admissions gods decide for you in March, it makes perfect sense to go the ED2 route.
