I would like to suggest - for your views!

The circuit cables attached to a terminal block that is a part of the back
box. The switch or socket would be connected to that block with a fly lead
that would be an integral part of that switch / socket with a Wago type
connector.

Any sympathy for this idea?


Sympathy? Perhaps. Willingness to invest? Not a chance - for the
reasons Owain has given - plus the risk it'd end up requiring 40mm deep
back boxes.
