I'm not familiar with YCs mods, I'll leave him to explain why he does this particular modification, if at all.
The emulator sits atop of the damper rod and is held in place by the main fork spring. I can see how it may aid slightly in fitting but like I said, I've never had any trouble with just popping the emulator in and quickly checking its position as described in the RaceTech fitting instructions. Once its in you'll likely never touch it again.
The main benefit comes from simply using the emulators and a suitable fork fluid, why make it more complicated than you need to unless you have the time, skills and inclination to do so?
I also have an engineering background and spent 15 years manufacturing machine components, the latter part of which programming and setting CNC machining centers. So I can see where the OP is coming from, its a nice idea but like I said totally unnecessary.
