Point taken and that has crossed my mind, except that I would need to get a new CR to get the same gear ratio I'm looking for in addition to the cassette and another RD. The "K" unit I have covers the ranges.

Given the range you're asking it to shift, I can't see the non-slant parallelogram of the Deerhead doing as good of a job.
The great firewall at work won't let me see the pic, but thank you very much for the info, I'll have a look at home. I did find some M550's, but the info on Velobase indicates 32T max. so I'll keep a look out for the 560 at 36T.
