I think his choice of hub was very poor - he would have been better getting a rohloff or sticking with Brompton 6 speed (maybe with 2 chainrings). Shimano hub gears are so inefficient.

I expect you're right but, to be fair to him, choice of rear hub isn't the biggest flaw in his setup...
I think his strategy needs work. Doing it in a Brompton is hard enough, burrowing is too much.
