It's not that your post is unacceptable. What we're trying to say is that your ideas:
1. are hardly new - treadle bikes were built and sold in the 1800s,
2. will be neither lighter nor more efficient,
3. less aerodynamic than many current recumbents, and
4. as drawn, will be unrideable.

I invite you to prove us wrong! Build one and submit a video of you riding it. I'm not sure why you're posting it in the first place. Until you have a working model, it's just vaporware. Are you trying to attract investors or something? Not likely to happen, I think; but ya never know...
