Yes, but you could make that emergency overflow loop even higher than you've drawn so that the water doesn't fall so far inside the overflow box.

Yes, true...but that doesn't have anything to do with the mod. If you have only one drain or bulkhead, that's always a risk. You could still apply every trick already available to prevent blockage and it would have no affect on the performance of this modified Herbie.
This is a Herbie mod for someone who wants the performance of a Herbie, yet is stuck with the limitation (and risk) associated with having only 1 drain hole.
