All I am saying is that what you are thinking is "confusing" (user-unfriendliness is what I have experienced) and will not solve the problem. > How exactly do you get 6 EV? The camera meters at open no matter what you set the ring to. I set the ISO 3 stops darker than the desired exposure, so it overexposes by 3 stops. This means that open+3 is the actual correct exposure, thus I have 3 stops either side. Of course it's so user-unfriendly that I may have got the above wrong even in the description, so I quickly bought a -5n. I very frequently stopped down without fixing the compensation, and occasionally compensated the wrong way. The linkage is the only way to do it fully and properly.
