Re 5#. There are at least two solutions to unequal pressure. one is a cheap flap check valve.

Then there are these https://www.bes.co.uk/water-pressure-equalising-valve-16711

I bought the second item. The pressure stayed balanced, constant even if someone opened the cold water supply, a lovely piece of engineering, was very impressed. It worked for 3 days then some grit got in and killed the mechanism. Mine was not a device you could strip and clean.

I ended up putting a cheap flap check valve on the hot side, simple and has not failed in 9 years.

That’s brilliant! Thanks so much for letting me know about your experience!
