OK. So I skewed the original scalar parameters in favour of my anti-intellectual musical agenda. Re-skew stuff in your favour.

There's a difference in the ability to read music and to notate music. In like manner, there's a difference between being able to play music and to convey HOW to do WHAT you do.

I think that happens a lot on forums. Literal forms such as TAB, charts and scores are one thing, systems, concepts and the like another. I can tell you from sharing a few things with the OP via email that he is a consumate musician. Perhaps he'll even grace the discussion with some examples of his work in various groups.

Playing music is, I suppose, a fairly complex task when you consider the amount of time and effort is put in to achieve a good amount of facility. Likewise, conveying to others HOW this is done is a complex task requiring at least the same amount of time and effort to develop ones abilities.

Doing it via a computer keyboard compounds the difficulty...

Thank you for the kind words. If anyone wants to hear what I do please send me a PM. I think my music is off subject in this thread, as well as a "thinking music vs playing music" debate.

I wish you all a good day/night

If this system works for you, then it is an awesome system.

If your purpose is to use it to teach others, then my humble opinion is that you should consider working on it with several people face to face and work out any "bugs" in your presentation.

"Bugs" = Perhaps adding clarity to areas where those students gets confused or have difficulty understanding, simplifying sections or adding information to allow for better understanding, etc...

I use a similar system. Basically I see the intervals for a given chord, much like your diagram and build my chord as needed. Sometimes the 5th, or even a 3rd in the bass can sound quite good too. If you know where the intervals are around your root note, then creating chords isn't too hard.

Code:
Root on 6th/1st
E| b7| 7 | R | b2| 2 |
B| 4 | b5| 5 | b6| 6 |
G| b2| 2 | b3| 3 | 4 |
D| b6| 6 | b7| 7 | R |
A| b3| 3 | 4 | b5| 5 |
E| b7| 7 | R | b2| 2 |

Root on 5th
E| 4 | b5| 5 | b6| 6 |
B| R | b2| 2 | b3| 3 |
G| b6| 6 | b7| 7 | R |
D| b3| 3 | 4 | b5| 5 |
A| b7| 7 | R | b2| 2 |
E| 4 | b5| 5 | b6| 6 |

Root on 4th
E| R | b2| 2 | b3| 3 |
B| 5 | b6| 6 | b7| 7 |
G| b3| 3 | 4 | b5| 5 |
D| b7| 7 | R | b2| 2 |
A| 4 | b5| 5 | b6| 6 |
E| R | b2| 2 | b3| 3 |

Root on 3rd
E| 5 | b6| 6 | b7| 7 |
B| 2 | b3| 3 | 4 | b5|
G| b7| 7 | R | b2| 2 |
D| 4 | b5| 5 | b6| 6 |
A| R | b2| 2 | b3| 3 |
E| 5 | b6| 6 | b7| 7 |

Root on 2nd
E| b3| 3 | 4 | b5| 5 |
B| b7| 7 | R | b2| 2 |
G| b5| 5 | b6| 6 | b7|
D| 4 | b5| b3| 3 | 4 |
A| R | b2| b7| 7 | R |
E| b3| 3 | 4 | b5| 5 |

Ok. General opinion is that it is too complicated. Let's do another version, more simple.
