for the life of me I do not see how that little chunk of metal would affect the throw?

I believe it changes the fulcrum point of the stick by moving that point downward or sideways or whatever is required in the shift housing. At least this is how it worked on my old porsche. Short/Quick Shifters with a shorter stick can usually claim an even shorter throw because they cut off the top half of the stick thereby eliminting that extra inch or so of throw.
