Is the extra piece movable, for intonation purposes? I don't know.

I would be nervous about the amount of gluing surface on the tie bar. That is not to say it is not ok. My guess is that both pieces are glued down. Intonation is not that hard on a nylon string, so having it floating does not make sense for me.

Complicated solution for a simple problem. (Looks elegant though)
The urge to be different IMO.

I'm in two-thirds agreement with Herman -- first third and last third.
