As a completely armchair mullet-er (hate to say it but I'm kinda with Peter Verdone on this one), I'll agree with you Deniz. Shrinking the rear maybe makes sense if you want to park-bike-ify a slayer or something but for a pedal bike? No sir! Too many compromises with geometry whereas if you pick up a bike that was already over-forked, just run closer to the same travel front and back with a 29er front wheel and you're probably laughing.
