I think he'd be more than willing and able to make at least a 6-month or so long run with the belts with Kane in the unlikely event it ever happened.

I think if they really did a legit reunion of the BoD (not the once-off kind of thing they did on Smackdown), then the 'E would eventually have to book the belts onto them. They could work a feud for a few months away from the straps (see: DX and Legacy), but it would be unrealistic for such an established and dominant team to not go after the top tag prize in the company at some point if you're really keeping them together.
As for the schedule, yes he was the champion, but how often did you see him wrestle outside of PPVs? How many weeks did a Smackdown go by where he only made a quick 2 minute appearance at the end of the show, or wasn't even on it? With the unified tag straps you have to make some semblance of a showing on both Raw and SD every once in awhile, and probably wrestle...which is more than 'Taker certainly has been doing. Now, one thing which I'll agree with you on is that it'll limit Taker's ring time when he's in a match...you can have Kane do more of the heavy lifting, which could help with Taker's banged up lower half.
In short, I'm not saying it
can't happen, and I understand what you're saying and all...I just can't see it. Agree to disagree.
