If raising bridge height has a consequence of a higher string height 
then is the
consequence of a lower bridge height a result of a curved string 
termination on the plate
and lower string height in the high treble.  I thought not addressing 
an even string height
was to maintain the front duplex spec measurements/angle.

Why not grind the v-bar to develop an even string height and raise 
the counter bearings
to maintain counter bearing angle and duplex length (if so desired).

Since it is purported that a taller bridge has an improved tonal 
effect and close tolerance
action dimensional measurements contribute to an even action then it 
must be concluded
that the cast-in front duplex is what Moses carried off the Mount 
cast-in stone and all else
must be sacrificed.
