"With a properly engineered short shifter, the bottom end of the gearlever is moving exactly the same distance as with a standard shifter....All that changes is the distance moved at the TOP of the gearlever...." While this may be the case, that is not what the picture shows comparing the two factory Porsche shifters. I am not claiming to know the correct answer here, but I did want to point out the inconsistency in the argument. Plus the secondary claim of "Given that Porsche invented the synchromesh system, if short shifters caused excess synchro wear, then Porsche wouldn't make factory short shifters." is pretty weak, and likely false if you know much about Porsche IMO.
