Is there science in the length of cantilever straddle cable?
As short as possible? A specific length? Follow manufacturer's advice written in the thrown away manual?

Yes, and that science is called trigonometry. As withered preaches, changing the angles affects the mechanical advantage, and the rate of change of mechanical advantage through the stroke.
