I don’t think I fully understood what you mean by "bend below to the cistern." I just imagined it like in the picture. Is there anything against that?

Exactly the opposite, the branch to the channel must be higher than to the cistern. Then the water only flows into the channel if the cistern overflows.

That's exactly how I had thought and written it as well.
