Essentially what I described would make the discontinued Linhof Technar with the addition of rise/shift/tilt.
Exactly. So if you use just 1 standard you have no swing at all (even if you used 2 standards how could you have 360° of swing?). If you use just 1 standard how will you get the Schneider helicoid focus mount correctly focused to the infinity? A home made spacer? But then it doesn't just simply fit to the Linhof Kardan board as you suggest.
