Preventing E-throttle gear breakage Beams 3SGE (and similar)

Hi, 

On the default settings I've broken a few sets of E-throttle gears, and I've seen a few other people mention similar. 

(I've busted 3-4 gears already)

So I've been looking at ways to mitigate this. 
Initially I started just looking at the throttle mapping itself, setting the max and min to 2% and 98% so it's not trying to bang into the end stops.
But then realized that the e-throttle clutch can be used to help as well, by softening the clutch near the end stops. 

So I'm using a table like this, and havent had any breaks since:

Perhaps it might need fine tuning on an individual basis to make sure it's not slipping too much near the extremities, but it's tested as working well tracking to its target even with high motor DC / fast accel/decel rates.
