From a mechanical perspective its a great idea, however there are pros and cons. Too many issues reported on CN, and then there's a huge question of support here (none) if it doesn't work properly on arrival, or worse, fails later on.
Agree there is a bit of a gap in the available mounts beyond the EQ6-R or AZ-EQ6, beyond that there's Losmandy, or SW Bisque or AP at $10k. But if I was prepared to spend $10k I'd step up to a harmonic drive mount from RainbowAstro, in Korea.
