Good point about filing the spider. Makes me nervous though.
Can understand why, I've done it in the past and only required a tiny amount of metal to shave off.
Unless @mdcc_tester have some death stories about filing arms.

Considering how much metal I've had milled of Campag Veloce/Mirage UT spiders (and cranks) over the years, I should be dead by now.
The whole reason why Omnomnoms cause trouble is that there is plenty of metal there, they are literally twice the weight of the lightest aluminium cranks

Yup the nds crank clearance is totally fine now but if I face a millimetre off the nds bb shell then the crank clearance will be borked, that's the point I'm trying to make.
