That must be excellent carpet you're smoking.
The clamp is broken and a soldering iron won't fix a damn thing. It may look fixed but structurally it's still f'd.

The more I look at it I have to agree packaging both the shifter and brake in one proprietary unit makes excellent sense if you're Shimano and you charge a fortune for them.
For the rest of us who aren't made of money they make no sense at all
