The longest you can hold A is 2F.

For the record, I went back to SC4 and tried it. Longest hold in that game appears to be 3F.
In SCIV you can hold A. I think that's the biggest difference.
...is there a timing issue as to when I have to hit 2? Before the button input? []
Only problem with this is that if you mess it up, there's a chance you'll go into MED when typically you would just do 2A, 2B or 2A+B which isn't a big deal. Ending up in a surprise MED though could result in a bit of a hurtin'.iMCF needs 2a pressed at same time. You can hold 2 through the B press, but you have to release A just like ear slicer, but it seems less strict to me.
2a:B+K will do iMCF and a:B+K will do ear slicer, so no need to remap or swipe aB. Just repeat the ear slicer input with a 2 at the same time you hit a. If you want to make sure you're getting the button inputs right, you can full crouch and iMCF from there now for some reason.
Sorry I meant to write that. You end up in Flea when you mess up Parting Thrust... It's early don't judge me haha!2a:B+K should actually put you into MED if you hold the 2. I don't think I've ever gotten anything except 2a out of a failed 2a:B/2a:B+K.
a:B+K itself has a chance to put you into FLE. Out of all the ways to fail ear slicer, I wish I would always land in FLE since you get in-air status and it's harder to punish than say...... bad stomach (A+B).
