I doubt this system is better than KO full using the method you described (I did a fairly quick cvdata check and I'm pretty sure I'm right). Griffin doesn't come outright and say unbalanced won't work. KO BJ came out in 1998, Griffin died in 1999. Do you think he had a lot of time to revise how he would measure PE for unbalanced systems? I wasn't following BJ back then but, I doubt people were really talking too much about the viability of an unbalanced count until that book.
