Oh, those look like helpful links! I must look at them when I have more time.
It felt shorter anyway, though most of my 'rest periods' were enforced by having to move plates from the barbell to the dumbbells and trying to calculate how I should arrange everything for minimal switching. Which made the rest periods much longer than they needed to be, and wasn't noticeably actually shorter until I did the workout at a hotel gym and didn't have to bother with that anymore. I also found that it helped if I just did all of the D exercises in each set with no rest between them, just with a little rest between the sets. They didn't seem straining enough to need more than that as written, though doing modifications may change that.
The weights I was using in stage 3 were light enough when I started that I could set up everything and just switch between things without having to share plates. So I think that stage 5 is actually a little shorter due to having fewer reps, but it may depend more on access to equipment than I think it does.
