Wouldn't it be possible to widen the waist of the shoes so that the midsoles aren't much narrower than the feet at those points?
If you did it that way, it would look like wearing kleenex boxes (for instance, if you draw the contact patch of my foot you have two parallel lines that suddenly widen right before the ankle then curves to join a the heel). One thing I wonder about is just an incredible amount of stiffening in the arch. I think if you match the flat foot's "arch" perfectly (since, being rigid, anything slightly too high hurts), it could work.
