My comment was in regards to wings not designed for sidemount systems.
Which sidemount to get?

Gotcha. I was only commenting on the "probably" in your post, and offering a "definitely" from my experience with those two systems you mentioned. It's all good! Have a great day!

How much experience do you have with the three SM kits you mentioned?
SuPrBuGmAn, I have noticed that several members have commented that the transpac isn't as stable as a standard bp which I believe refers to horizontal movement. What kind of metal bracing short of a bp would be able to make a soft pac or the razor harness as stable as a bp for bm doubles?

No idea, as stated earlier, my experience with BM on a Nomad is limited, and it was mostly hodgepodging gear together in order to make the dive. I did the dive, perfectly fine.
BMing isn't something I care to do with doubles - unless I plan on doing a tech dive off a larger(ie, not my zodiac) dive boat in open ocean. This is not something I do often at all.

Nomad, swapped inflator, moved the wing down a notch, and dive the ever living piss out of it with heavy steels, light steels, aluminums, deco, deep, stages, whatever.
!
I think the instability others are experiencing is based on the harness not being tight enough, not the lack of a piece of metal. I haven't had any stability issues diving my Nomad in backmount. I will add that I also usually dive it in 85s, though. It might be less stable with bigger tanks.
