The problem I see here is no prioritization. Essentially everylift is being trained as if it were part of the big three. And I will say bench and press can be chosen interchangeably as part of you big three. Trying to max out on everything on a weekly basis or even training everything with the same high intensity will force you into deloads uneccesarily.
Jeffo has made some good suggestions but the problems are still the same as your current setup. The TM was meant as a way to program the big lifts not as a comprehensive across the board training theory. Everything that is not a main lift needs to be treated as either an assistance or accessory and programmed accordingly. That would usually mean lower intensity and higher reps.
Anything will work for a while. But if you are trying to do weekly periodization and being forced into deloads so very often then there is a fundamental flaw. In that case it would be more efficient to simply load more aggressively and with more volume with the intention of overreaching in 4 to 6 weeks. Otherwise you are micromanaging yourself silly for nothing.
You need to pick either bench or press as your priority and use the other differently. Embrace higher rep ranges. Everything doesn't have to be 1 to 5 reps all the time. Some repeated effort or submaximal effort can and should be used also. . For instance with chins/pullups, and rows. Same thing with some pressing or anything else that is a secondary lift to the main lifts.
Quite simply, you need to comprimise and if you do I think you will see more longterm success without as much disruption.
BTW, there are easier and more efficient ways to do this. I would suggest a simple upper/lower setup.

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