That's risky business, there's not an easy way to tell whether what you read is useful or complete BS.
I would suggest that reading a (beginners) design text would get you farther, faster.

Understood, but this question is also (respectfully) challenging many here!
Seriously, I understand and I do have a library of books, probably $2,000 worth purchased over the last year. All the Morgan books, all the Popovich books, all the Blencoe books, I've tried to read the Radio Designers Handbook (but never got through War and Peace either), Norman Crowhurst is my personal hero, I've become a John Broskie monthly Patreon supporter, many other books, etc. I lack the math and physics, but love this hobby, so reading many, many schematics is only one of my ways forward along with the textbooks I did mention in my OP (where I said that I've never seen this circuit in a textbook before). I'm getting there, slowly but surely! The wife thinks I'm possessed.
Hi,
I tried adding diodes to my UL screen grids recently, but as far as I can see this is not giving any improvement. I guess it’s BS, but it was easy to try this. The G2 voltage just drops 0,7V, that’s all that’s happening as far as I can see. It’s not audible IMHO.
