FWIW, I have OEM master and slave ... The slave moves 17mm.
Effort reduction kits, I don't see the need, and they do reduce slave travel... And the math is simple, if the effort reduction kit results in requiring X% less effort, the slave will move X% less. It's that simple....
Thanks for measuring and posting your slave stroke.
as for the effort reduction, the way it provides "advantage" is to reduce the slave stroke versus pedal when fully depressed. to make up for the loss of slave stroke you mention, the initial applying the clutch in fact moves the slave MORE for the first 30mm or so of pedal, before it begins the LESS slave stroke advantage.
as I have state earlier, if that b/c angle is too shallow, the toggle will "lockup" or worse, flip and go backwards. If the angle is made to great, you lose the "fast take up" and now the pedal travel will not stroke the slave its full travel because not bottoming out the MC
