In real estate law, river accretions move parcel boundaries, avulsions do not. That is probably the way it should be for state lines too. When a river avulses, to move the administration of the land affected into another state, would presumably be administratively inconvenient.

Kentucky Bend seems to have always been drawn that way, though. So your accretion/avulsion rule wouldn’t have mattered there.
