The EDC looks like a nice system, even without running cables down the steerer, I'd like on other bikes to have tools in there.
Maybe no good on a carbon steerer though? I wouldn't want to tap a thread into one anyway.The previously mentioned Pro Tharsis stem has a built in pre load thread since it's designed for having the di2 battery in the steerer rather than an expanding wedge

I've been looking in to perfecting all of this for my next build. And since the space inside a steerer is so limited, I've been thinking about losing the sleeve or any other form of star nut/expander plug.
And I'm currently looking into 2 options, go for a One Up EDC lockring for my pre-load. This means I don't need a top cap, thus not needing a star nut of expander plug. https://www.oneupcomponents.com/collections/edc
The second option would be a problem solver adjustable headset spacer between the stem and headset. Not sure about the looks though.
