Then there is the matter of effectively making your
cylinder bigger by adding some simple controls.

But you haven't - you made it "smaller"

No bigger as it gives a larger volume of hot water.

From where?

The cylinder.

, except for adding a flow
switch to start the boiler earlier
than the thermostat would.
Everything else made it worse
from the capacity perspective.

Nonesense.

How does adding a thermostat which has the effect of allowing most of
the cylinder contents to fall to cold water temperature increase the
volume of hot water?

You should read properly. That was to make the re-heat more efficient.
Other methods were given to increase the hot water volume a cylinder will
produce. Duh!
