Looks like you could shrink the BF footprint by removing the front wheel and putting alongside the frame on the driveside. One folder I saw many months ago in the forums, had a small bracket on the right chainstay to attach the front wheel axle. Your fork doesn't extend beyond the rear tire swung underneath, I think.
Yeah, this is just a quick fold to get on the train to Rochester NY for a tour. I could have made it smaller (and more cumbersome) if the conductor asked me to. Thankfully they didn't
The Zizzo and Brompton style trifolds would be much better for regular multi-modal travel.
