8mm/2mm at least meets the rule of thumb that a keyway width is 1/4 the diameter of the shaft. And thus broach manufacturers will make broaches and bushing combinations in that size.

I'm aware of that adapter, but unfortunately brass shaft adapters aren't meant to handle shock loads (like those experienced when crossing defenses in Stronghold).
