The added section I am recommending is flat wound, and very very short. The amount of "compression" introduced by this is inconsequential.





The tiny cable is under the bar tape. Not sure how that's an issue.



Ok, fair enough. But that definitely does not work with all Yokozuna and all levers. The big advantage for me is the little tiny flex cable allows me to tuck the brake cables under the bar tape, and the Yokozuna always tries to "pop up".

I explored using the Jagwire item linked above. I ran into the same problem with these as I did with the R8000 levers. The thick Yokozuna housing didn't slip into the female end of the Easybend housing segment. I reached out to Yokozuna for their recommendation since I'm not super happy with my sanded housing solution.
