Brake efficiency
#4
Experimenting with shortened linings etc would likely encourage fracture of the alloy shoes, not uncommon anyway.
The closer the end of the lead lining is to the cam, supposedly the more forceful application (and tendency to grab).

It woud likely lead to bent cams but often wonder how brakes work with a very used trailing shoe so that  it does not contact.  (The trailing shoe obstructs the cam from further applying the lead shoe)
