As someone probably of a similar age, I can only completely agree with the basic content of your statement. But since you addressed this topic especially from an ecological perspective, this is not about fulfilling "own wishes" but about achieving an ecologically sensible goal of a planned measure, and I absolutely doubt that one would save energy or water with hand-mixed water. My single-lever mixer in the bathroom is set exactly so that the water always comes out at the temperature my wrinkled skin likes, right from the very first drop. Until a two-handle mixer reaches this state, at least a few drops of cold or improperly tempered water uselessly flow down the drain, which is the opposite of what should be achieved. The almost world-changing innovation of "Coolstart" was apparently implemented for people who cannot bear the lever not being straight but turned to the left, or maybe for families with children or people who handle it rather unconsciously. I understand your intention and also pay attention to it, but I simply keep the lever set to -cold- and I too grew up with a wood stove in the bathroom and much more. Now you've got the mess; you just wanted a recommendation for a faucet........ Screwing a faucet onto a wooden board causes trouble...... Aha, here lies the significant potential for optimization, maybe we should discuss more deeply what possibilities "man" finds there

That is of course true, I tend to forget that all too often.
I can only agree with Pagoni, I also found CoolStart at Hansgrohe, which addresses your energy problem.
If it really has to be a tall two-handle mixer, then I can recommend using the filter function at one of the two big bathroom online shops, which I’m unfortunately not allowed to link here, and set the filters to:
Faucet type: Two-handle mixer
Special features: elevated faucet body

That way you will find suitable products for your wish. I found 6 pieces from Steinberg, Dornbracht, AXOR, Herzbach and Grohe.
I attached a picture for you.

Ideologies are always an unpleasant matter because they do not withstand rational facts.
