I have looked at this app but I feel like it just makes my screen more cluttered. If there was a way to do a double wide that was 1/2 as tall then I would consider.

I know wwhat you mean. Its alot of black space, and it does make your start screen quite long. But i think the final result is nice and ordered

Folder tiles would be perfect. But great would be what Paul Thurrott on Windows Weekly suggested. Similar to how Windows 8 handles search, a searchable start button. When you start typing in the field it not only brings up Bing results, but apps you have installed and any other applicable subject. Maybe apps, music, podcasts, etc. in the phone store.

While it would be cool to have it all in one, you can just swipe to the app list and there is a search there. Or click the letters to get a quick jump.

I only use 26. I like to keep it simple and only have stuff I actually use on my start screen.

2 large, 8 medium, 16 small

I am loving WP8!
I don't know what the limits of pinned tiles are, but as of 203 there are no performance or battery issues at all.
Can't do this with an iphone or android.

I currently have 24 tiles in total. 12 small, 11 medium and only 1 wide (calendar).

I seem to spend a lot of time trying to get the perfect formation though. Even when I think I've got it as good as I can, I tend to look at it again a few moments later and say things like:

"Actually I think this would look better over there...",
"Hmmm, maybe a row of small tiles would suit this formation better than a square of small tiles...",
"Nah, I can't have two green tiles next to each other, it looks awkward...",
"Nah, 4 tiles of the same size all together doesn't look right, I need to mix it up a bit with some smaller tiles..."
"Maybe... no, that's ruined everything now, change it back!"

Lol
