Graham: "... Framework covers the use of calls that shorten or lengthen
a lead. I am not aware of this being exploited though. ... I intend to
support in Complib, but have not yet got round to. Some examples would
be good upon which to test the design for it."
(1)
Raccoon Minor
https://complib.org/method/33927
and the composition from bellboard referenced under Performances.

the Raccoon Extreme extends the lead by fortytwo changes (the Ultimate
Answer)

Lockdown with a book of squared paper gives much entertainment and some
very useful calls that shorten the lead (for example) of
Primrose Surprise Minor
https://complib.org/method/14570
Need some new notation for these calls:
Take three successive plain courses of Primrose Surprise Minor, and with
omissions, there is no need for further calls to create a delightful
shorter touch thus:
first sixth and eleventh leads: omit first change and third to
twentythird inclusive
other leads: omit first to eleventh change and thirteenth to twentythird
changes.
I'm sure there will be better examples along shortly
