Hejnar Replacement Foot: Z400/ 4.5 vs Z100-400 on a Z9

I know some of you have both of the above lens and many are shooting on Z9. Do any here have BOTH Hejnar replacement feet on the respective lens and if so how does each balance on a gimbal with the Z9?

One reason I ask is that the Z400 /4.5 appears to be ½" longer (or more) at the rear of the mount bolster i.e. rear overhang. Is this because that lens is about ½# lighter than the Z100-400? To simplify kit, is there any reason not to just have the Z400 /4.5 foot and just swap the two lens as needed?

Interestingly, the Kirk replacement foot is exactly the same part number for both of the aforementioned lens. And, appears to closely match the Hejnar Z100-400 foot.

I appreciate comments if any have noted this also and have played around interchanging said feet between these two Z 400s.
