What is needed is an auto bypass valve.


Which is another bodge on the bodge that didn't fit a room stat to

I thought the auto bypass valves were more to allow a sink of heat for
the boiler when the motorised valve closed, and would still be needed
even if one rad had no TRV, as there would be no circulation path for
the pump overrun.
