I interpreted the OP as saying he would join all the wires of the same
colour in a blob and glom the other wires to the same blob. Ugly, but it
would work. Not professional at all. However folks do like short cuts
and that was what I offered.
I would be too embarrassed to actually do that blob thingy though...

The OP should stagger the cuts for each set of common wires.
To attempt them side-by-side would put all the "blobs" side-by-side.
 
I am reminded of the idiot in the UASF that was told to replace a 36
conductor plug in a F-102's radar equipment bay. He cut the cable straight
across about 2" from the old connector. Then, after soldering new
"stub" wires into the new plug, he proceeded to splice it all back onto
the cut cable. He somehow succeded, but the plane's crew chief could not
close the cover over the equipment bay -- due to the now some-6" thick bable.
