Me referring to this motor as three phase is probably causing some confusion. But you hint at another consideration. If I were to take a "normal" three phase coil excitation pattern, then just lop off half of the waves, it would be a little "lumpy", there are three closely spaced pulses then a gap, would probably want to see if I can space the pulses evenly, not sure the geometry even allows for it yet.
