What Jim and I have been trying to explain is that, contrary to your assumption, heavy bus limiting will most likely hurt your cause, not help it.
You might want to want to post your original question in the Post Production forum as well, and see what those folks think. (It's theoretically against GS rules, but an exception here seems appropriate.) You might even ask this question instead (or as well): "Hey action-film mixers -- if I were to deliver two sets of stems, one heavily limited and one not, which set would you use?"
