PJE:
"Is there are reason you missed out this method (and the three other
variants changing the half-lead / lead-end change)?  It has slightly more
music than yours without introducing any extra falseness.

&-5-4-56-36-4-5.36.2-7,2 18674523"

That's quite a nice method but I perhaps MBD was limiting his list to
methods that approached the half lead -16.7 ?

"You can get the same effect with even more familiar overworks, such as
Bristol over (I'm a bit surprised to see neither this method nor the
variants with different half-lead or lead-end changes has been rung)

&-5-4.5-5.36.4-34.5-2.56.1,1 13527486"

Probably because they are somewhat inferior (in terms of introducing B
falseness) variants of Sunday and Philip Surprise Major.
