I came across this video and wanted to ask a question relating to your Bonefish formula... If I wanted to get my tippet down to 12lb fluoro (0.012' diameter) without extending the length of the leader, could I leave out one of your sections to make room for the additional tippet section? If yes, then which one would you recommend? My thinking was to leave out the 0.020' (25lb) section and therefore drop from 0.022' down to 0.018' and on to 0.015' (20lb) fluoro and 0.011' (12lb) fluoro. Final formula would therefore be 0.026', 0.022', 0.018' (all M/H mono) + 0.015' and 0.012' fluoro. Thoughts?

I would just sub the 12 lb fluoro for the 16 lb fluoro and leave the rest of the leader as it is.

Just buy a tapered leader.
