Love your thoughts on this & you have done so well.
One thing that came to my mind is a reversed tranny means that the motor will have to spin in reverse. Shouldn't be a problem with brushless especially with the better brushless set up's that can be programed to run in reverse.
Brushed motors i guess you can change the timing to run in the brushed motor in reverse. Stock cans will not work they all have some advance timing built in.
Just my thoughts on motors.
Brillant as I said
