That's a pretty interesting discussion!
I suspect that your beams would be much stronger if you used the 1/3 high
bricks instead of the standard 1 brick high. I have noticed that the 1/3
size bricks bind considerably more tightly than the full size bricks. Of
course, all of your tests would still apply. However, you would end up with
a stronger beam with more clearance!
P.S. I'm still reading the bottom to visualize all of the later proposals.
Some pictures would really help!
Also, I can't wait to see your completed project!!! :)
