Yes, it seems well-suited. I was a bit sceptical about the difference in range, but that calculator is very handy indeed - I find it a lot easier to get my head around these things visually. So yes, I think I might go the 1x route.
Should also be easy enough to go back to 2x if you do find the jumps in ratio too much
