I went with the solution where I paid for a load management device on the 50A outlet and it counts as zero in the overall load calculation which meant it was feasible for 100A.

The device costed about $1000 on top of the outlet. The alternative to upgrade to 200A service was about $4500.

I didn't really see the point of paying extra.
