One thing I noticed is that system uses shims under the insert & top anvil type hold-down. Did you have this system in mind for a particular reason? Not that its bad (I think it copies a big boy system) just more things to deal with. There are other popular holders where the insert is retained in a milled pocket with a single screw. CCMT DCMT for example. They have the advantage of utilization in many other toolholders including boring bars.
 
I have a few of those kit most come from Busybee but they don't offer many options ,and many time they are out of stuff. This is what I don't like when your ordering something on line. It is not easy for me like car part most time it is not clear. But with you I learn more and that help a lot. I saw on your site a place they explain the number and letter of the definition of the item. Thank you
