It sounds like you're asking if something that's used to compensate for a poorly fitting frame should be considered for your custom frame. I'd say no.
guess I'll wait until I get an answer from the builder about how he designed it. interestingly, before I ordered this frame I posted questions on this and other forums asking which decisions need to be made, and I was told repeatedly to just trust the builder and not interfere with his design decisions. lol.
