Stable Analog Inputs with Modified Pot Values?

Other Hardware Sensors
1

I want to sense position of 16 pots with CD4067 to a single analog input pin. I have been reading about co-variability with multiple pots over 10k. What if I modify 100k pots with a 2k7 between each leg to the wiper to simulate a ~5k pot as explained here:

Will this satisfy the <10k recommendation and keep readings stable across all pots as one value changes?

Then what about adding another 16 pots to the next analog in pin?

Would tossing the first read of each pot solve this in the first place?

Or use a bunch of 5K pots, no problem then. 1mA of current draw for each.
Pots as low as 39 cents here, linear and audio taper

Read each pot twice if you see anomalous readings.
16 into a mux into a pin, 16 into next mux into a pin, repeat 4 more times if you want for 96 pots.

anomalous looks funny, that can't be spelled right ...
