IMO long Short irons would be problem for me hitting well before the ball due to the length, I choke down enough anyway! I guess if you practiced enough might work in time. For me time I don't have

I don't understand why you'd hit behind the ball with shorter shafts. If anything, the opposite should be true. And you say that you choke down a lot. Am I misunderstanding what you are saying here?
The theory was that you'd make the length the same the club that you're the most comfortable with, which for most people was the seven iron.
If that's what you did, you three iron would have to be four degrees upright and your pitching wedge four degrees flat. Not only do all the lengths have to be the same, but all the lie angles and head weights must be identical as well.
What concerns me about that is that shaft length is a contributing factor to the distance each club will carry. How do hey explain the fact that you will have the same gaps between irons with only the loft changing?
