I would do an Upper/Lower split (not necessarily DFHT) or DFHT just because it will help keep your strength up while giving you some good hypertrophy.

Personally, I prefer DFHT to HST for pure hypertrophy. Just my opinion based on what worked for me.

I'd have to go out on a limb and say you NEED a lot more volume because you're advanced! Fucking beast..

I agree with you in SOME cases. HST is decent. But in most beginners and intermediates, strength training IS hypertrophy training for them. [Newbies write that down] HST steers those trainees away from obtaining strength and onto isolations/high reps/hypertrophy work.

I dislike how HST puts the same amount of attention into the 15 rep mesocycle as the 10 reps. Not too many people are slow twitch dominant, meaning the majority grows best from the final week of 10's through the 5's. I know they say the lactic acid from the 15's "prepares your joints for the heavier loads that follow"... BUT, the kicker is that if trainees have a 200/300/400 strength base, your joints can easily handle that light load LOL.

All that being said, there's a hundred ways to create a routine that has increased frequency, moderate volume (if needed), and focuses on progression by increasing strength.
