Super PAF is a nice idea if you want the Super D with a PAF look.

The tele pickups are not humcancelling so they are a non-starter for me. I wished they came up with a good humcancelling tele neck pickup.

Presented EQ graph is quite different than the SD. So what reminds me is Duncan Custom. It may be a louder Custom.

A tele neck pickup that can step up to the bridge pickup in output and tonal quality. I find most tele neck pickups dull, weak or both. In fact I never quite understood why Fender did not switch to a strat pickup for the neck position after putting the stratocaster in production but different strokes for different folks I guess.

That's why i always liked Twisted Tele neck pickup.
