Another disadvantage is edge discharge from the exposed 4 corners and 6 edges [uneven current density]..and ribbon is extremely flimsy , hard to mount and to keep parallel.

One of the objections to using a flat piece of silver for a cathode has been that the flat surface facing away from the cathode will not emit much silver since it is shielded from the cathode, so one half of the surface area is not really being used.

Why not merely place the flat plate anode in the center and place two cathodes, one on each side? Bob is recommending using a smaller anode anyway (for reasons that aren't entirely clear) so why not use a plate for the anode and a wire for each anode?

A larger anode area should translate into faster CS making.
