Ah, I was going in the other direction, that a very large diameter (relative to the ERD) or widely spaced flange could exceed the permitted approach angle of the spoke to the rim, which would facilitate precession of the threads under cyclic loading due to asymmetric support under the spoke head. Your idea sounds good too 🙂

What I mean is that if the inter-flange distance is too short, then the hub is only suitable for deep rims… anything shorter than say 54-55 mm is not really suitable for shallow rims
