I worked on a profile that made more sense to me, and I would like to share it. Hopefully it will make sense and inspire others.
The pinky button functions as Shift and as button 5. I plan to map button 5 as main wheel brakes so it shouldn't conflict with shift functions during normal use.
The rudder pedals are mapped to buttons at 25% of travel so I can set them for left and right wheel brakes in games like DCS for taxing.
 
Format is "Glad Button = Joystick Button / Shifted Joystick Button"
 
39 buttons:
Trigger = 1 / 3
Top Button = 2 / 4
*Pinky = 5 / Shift 
Hat = POV / 6,7,8,9
Flaps = 10,11 / 23,24
Mode = 38 / 39
A1 = 12 / 25
A2 = 13 / 26
A3 = 14 / 27
B1 = 15 / 28
B2 = 16 / 29
B3 = 17 / 30
C1 = 18 / 31
C2 = 19 / 32
C3 = 20 / 33
Start = 21 /34
Eject 22 / 35
**T-Rudder Mk IV (RY Axis) = Left Button 36 / Right  Button 37
 
Also included is a profile without pedals and limited to 32 buttons for games that have a button limit.
