Choosing belts and pulleys
That wiki article is misleading because it implies T5 and T2.5 cause backlash. That isn't true, either with printed pulleys, or the correct metal pulleys, only with cheap metal pulleys on eBay from Hong Kong that don't have the correct tooth profile.

T2.5/GT2 are pulleys. So I assume you suggest me to use the belt suitable for T2.5 and apply it on GT2 pulley? But the the pitch and shape of teeth is different.
Or if you suggest me to switch to T2.5 setup completely, I have read enough post that suggest GT2 performance in regard to backlash is superior to T2.5.
But my question still remain: there are very long belt for GT2, longer than the original one that Misumi supplies - which I do not understand..
