Even riders without leg length discrepancies use different shims on different feet. So if it works for you then great. I'm not seeing that you are complaining of any pain. So are you just hunting a cure for nothing?
I could have ridden the rest of my life with unequal legs with no pain or complaints (other than the usual getting old and the consequences of many thousands of mile). But correcting it has been a revelation.
