But splitting the ball shifter gears or trying to put it in front or behind the inital reduction like dog shifters would require a custom ball shifter wouldn't it? If you split them you need to have to ball shifter holes farther apart which would mean maching a custom ball shifter housing and moving it in front or behind would mean machining a longer or shorter ball shifter rod.

I might just go with a dog shifter for ease of manufacturing.
