There's always the option of, you know, not strangling itself.
That would be splendid although it seems to have been a controversial choice until recently
don't kinkshame the lovely people of the Isles, they apparently have a penchant for many things, like separate cold and hot water faucet and a bit of autoerotic asphyxiation.

This was, oddly, for regulatory reasons; the concern was that a blocked mixer unit could cause hot water (considered potentially unsafe) to be forced into the mains supply (presumed safe). This hasn't been a concern with mixer designs for a long time, but it took til the 90s to get the rule changed.
