This song is in NO way swung, and barring the rest of your criticism, this in particular struck me as something to call to your attention. I took VERY special precautions to ensure that the rhythms followed the music as exactly as possible. Listen with the assist tick on and you'll see what I mean.

* The second B doesn't come in during the holds. It lines up at the same beat the holds end.
* There's enough give in freeze-arrow timing that you can come off the hold, hit the B and still manage to score an OK. It isn't like that one mine in DDRex's Fly Magpie!, after all.
* If I had shortened the scroll-freeze by one beat (the only way to avoid both the near-hand and blue arrow syndrome) it would have felt too short - HVAMish, without such a short break in the music to justify it.
I thought that part of the file was a non-issue. Maybe I should have defended this in the readme, and I apologize for not doing so.
