I'm surprised someone with his skills doesn't have better/cheaper solution for medium amperage power distribution.

Sometimes the rabbit holes you might encountered aren't interesting.

These motors won't be at full power for more than 100 milliseconds at a time anyway. It's fine to overload regular outlets by 10x for 100ms - and the specs of breakers even specifically allow for this use case.
Big appliances like air conditioners, especially old non-inverter ones, will usually do that.
