You could do that but it kinda makes the whole setup pointless overkill.

If I were to make a suggestion it would be to switch to dumbells for you overhead press on Wednesday. And don't necessarily just do one thing..you could do dumbell push press sometimes, etc..keep it open.

Don't be afraid to ditch the bench press for lighter work on Friday sometimes. The "pr" attempt in this setup is doing very little for you so although it's good to try it...use Friday for extra recovery if you need it, or prehab, etc...

If you are progressing on Mondays and somewhat on your Wed press, doing ok with your chins, etc...then you are getting stronger regardless of what Friday brings. So don't overthink it..progression is progression and a tendency to higher numbers over time is better than a bunch of "theories" as to how the week works.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
