26 transistors for a shift register stage seems quite a lot, especially compared to the over all slimmed design. I feel that I've seen much more compact shift registers in some of your other posts, but I guess that those weren't fully static designs. On the other hand, shift registers still seem to take up a pretty modest part of the area (I think?), so maybe it doesn't matter so much.

Interesting to hear about the consistent use of LFSRs for clock division!
