So just to reiterate, the fetch/shock lands were not working for me in this format. The hit to my life points was forcing me to play more defensively and retarding my wincon. My mana base has not been the issue in any single game I have played thus far except those outliers where sometimes you just get screwed. No I don't have any 1 drops but honestly(in casual deck/games) it isn't really a detriment. I havent been reliant on Chromatic Lantern at all. In fact, I'm thinking about pulling them since, more often than not, I don't usually need them and just use them for mana. I just happened to have a Chromatic Orrery so I thru it in for the card draw. Which in a deck like this is five cards. Azusa, Lost but Seeking + The Reality Chip has provided me with massive amounts of ramp, in all facets of the game. I have a Umori, the Collector version of this deck that runs almost of the cards you suggested but when it comes to actually playing the decks, I still like how this one plays more. That is because, all the cards you suggested don't often stay on the board for more than a turn or two and end up just being removed quickly. As stated above, keeping two mana in the wings is not an issue. Losing my Sanctum of All is an issue tho. I'm not sure what your beef with Negate is but it has been doing exactly what I need it to do which is to prevent the removal of my Sanctum of All. You are right about the removal and wipes tho. That is why I added The Kami War Flip to the deck already and why I(even tho it's not reflected in the current list) main boarded Farewell.
