Thing is for 11s mtb cassettes you might be better off just using the existing solutions. 12s could be the ticket, although you’d still need the 12s campy shifter and wither xd or micro spline cassettes.

Tighter spacing forces standardization of cog spacing, but cable pull is still a wildcard. I am no wizard, but the fact that Ekar sends the cable around a cam before anchoring could make it a wildly different cable pull.
The kluge i eluded to certainly wouldn’t be better than designed solutions but sometimes it’s fun to play around with things. Someone with a lot more parts on hand would have to test.
