To do that, I'll have to take it off and deliver it to a machine shop to do the work for me. Which, according to that link, will take more time and work.

First things first, though, I need to find a good machine shop in town and also get the adapter.

Who makes the adapter with the shortest throw for a 6th gen Accord?

I like the B&M adapter b/c it has adjustable neutral position. I'm taking apart my console today if anyone needs pics of something specific btw.

I don't know if the link covered it, but you can swap a lude shifter assembly into your accord, which features a slightly shorter, straight stick. Since your stick has a bend, the machine shop should be able to chop a section out under the bend reweld.

Its more work, but that's half the fun, right?
