It's an odd set-up. I don't remember anyone suggesting it before. It puts a pair of rooks next to each other on that flank. How much difference would it make if black were reversed? If I ever get the chance, I'd like to look at some of those positions in Great Shatranj, to see the effects. Do you think the short range Capa pieces will show any effects more or less strongly?
