>You’d have to be pretty near damn certain that the ratio would go to 10 to 1 to justify going more than 50/50 silver to gold in your stacking.
No. If I buy silver at 85:1 and sell at 40:1, my dollar will get me more gold by buying silver first. Most places have around a 5% buy and 5% sell spread, so even after taking the 10% cut (both ways) I'm still a little better ahead than I would have been just buying gold in the first place. 40:1 is not an unreasonable ratio, we've hit it several times in the 21st century, and in 2011 went down to 30:1, and we hit 20:1 three times in the 20th century.
