For me 5 gallons of propane makes 2-3 season supply, so often I travel with single cylinder only.
Than the switch over valves leak when you disconnect empty cylinder, so on all my RV, I always plug one side of the valve and only switch the connecting hose when needed.
The burst valve is on new cylinder valves per my understanding?
When new technology suppose to add safety - it is adding headaches for sure
Cylinder valves also have push-open valves that open only with proper fitting in it. I had 1 on my BBQ that would allow only miniature flow and only replacing the hose to older one, who has male thread solved the issue.
