Correct ... you are completely wrong! With such a small slit opening (600mm) you can only use one scope at a time and that means you (almost certainly) have to have 2 geometries with different Xt terms - one for the main scope and one for the piggy back. I have a single 14" scope and if I had anything piggy backed it would more often than not be staring at the inside of the dome unless I used a separate geometry for it.
OK point taken
