No need to chop the Mustache wall. Give it a few more years and it will be a 4x4 grid. Just let nature take it's course.

One way to deal with over bolting is to start a discussion thread on the Supertopo Forum. You could try that.

if the bolt is 6' away you only have to go 2' above the previous bolt to clip it and then you're only pulling out 4' of rope so only a 6' fall max.
if you do them 4' apart you're looking at a 4' fall and you could hit the rock right at the previous bolt.
OWIE!
They should be 3' max for safety

lol, you are gumby, Gumby.
In your clipping scenario you would still fall 12'.
Don't forget to clip into the auto belay! dammit stop using math to prove i'm wrong. math isn't real.

If you can squeeze the bolts and hangers of a new route in close enough to an existing route, don't the hangers then get renamed "footholds"?
