We can get an appraisal though.
The combat utility of unparryable, stupidly sharp, wrist-mounted force daggers is unquestioned. It may or may not be extremely difficult, but FMPOV Kagome was mostly thinking about stablization concerns when modding the forcewall to be done with only one seal. The issue with doing that is that the chakra gets unstablized when there isn't the inherent symmetry to balance it out. My thoughts on this would be that it would be easier to correct this on a smaller scale design: a couple inches long force-dagger, rather than a 16m^2 force wall coming out from one seal.
You'll note he didn't actually say much specifically about the inherent difficulty or projected time here. That was him talking about the Surveillance-Casino Seal thing.
See:
He let his finger drift down. "Movable Force Wall. Yeah. Lock it to the tags instead of in place. Yeah. Should be doable. Probably cut your own fingers off, though. Like grabbing an invisible knife that you can't see and probably isn't where you thought it was because the world is like that and it hates us. Not sure about doing it with only one seal; there wouldn't be anything to define the boundaries." He closed his eyes to better visualize the forces that were present in a Wall. He let himself take one moment to enjoy the ability to close his eyes and know that his team—his team!—was keeping watch while he wasn't. Only one moment, then he forced his brain back on task.
The Force Wall was projected from one tag to another; what would it even mean to construct a wall between two non-existent seals? Still, the top and bottom weren't physically constrained...of course that was because they automatically stopped at the point where the chakra that composed the surface of the wall was smooth and in balance, which happened when it was of equal size on perpendicular axes around the center. Still...maybe you could use that principle to your advantage? Have a single seal, push chakra out in one direction and let the 'stretchiness' take care of expanding it in the other directions? You'd end up with something off balance and unstable which could easily explode into tiny shards of invisible chakra that would turn you into mulch. Of course, that wasn't necessarily the worst thing, and maybe you could stabilize it by pushing in more than one direction...?
"Maybe," he grunted. "Can't rule it out, at least. Probably eat our faces if we try, but that's like anything. Let's see, what other crazy insanity that will almost certainly kill us all have you got...?
