Just tested this with 452 craftsmanship, and confirm that is correct, you end up right at 585 progress. Damn, that's unfortunate. So this basically makes the ideal meld for offhand 1x Command IV, 2x Competence IV, 1x Competence III, and 1x whatever you choose. Not looking forward to melding that third materia slot...

Alternatively, you could always just use 3x Competence III and then a Competence II or III in the last slot, but then you lose out on more CP or control. Or just do as Kalandros suggested and forgo the +4 Control.
