The strait is narrow and so Odysseus has to pass by either Scylla or Charybdis. Circe tells Odysseus that Charybdis is far more dangerous, as 3 times a day it sucks in all the waters around it.

He goes through Scylla by just going past it, letting 6 of his men get eaten by Scylla. And he sailed closer to Scylla to get past Charybdis.

Odysseus prioritizes the survival of the majority over the loss of a few, reflecting his leadership and strategic thinking in dire situations.
