Brahea ID needed

Can anyone tell what it is by its crown shape and flowers? It is blue. But it doesn't look like B. armata to me (Short fruit stalks). My phone has a really bad quality camera, couldn't take good enough photos.

If it's blue with short inflorescences perhaps it's a blue form of Brahea dulcis.  If there's no petiole thorns perhaps Brahea super silver.

From what I have seen, it's definitely not a Super Silver. They don't have any droop to them.

Really hard to ID from the photos but the leaflets look really deeply divided which isn’t consistent with dulcis. Maybe B aculeata?
