Blade chatter exists with a straight razor, it's just that no one notices because they are concentrating on not doing a Vincent Van Gogh thing on the ear.
 
The sun is hot.
Flat earthers think the sun is a fireball, (Oh it’s still the current belief). I get it the sun feels like a fireball to our naked senses, and the earth looks flat. Yet on closer examination, one may realize that the sun cannot be a fireball. The way fire works is that the closer one gets to the fire, the hotter it gets. Not so with the sun, as the vacuum of space is pretty dark and cold. I’m told the planets close to the sun are hot. Think of all those hot sweaty people sitting out and playing in the sun during the summer.
 
Even at night?!
Especially at night. Time to enter fusion power. Welcome to the light of cold.
You know, having read most of your explorations here, I really think you need a straight razor. Probably something with a heavier grind, quarter hollow or so. Excellent blade rigidity, you can shave as shallow as you want, and it's actually designed to be stropped and honed. A Henckels Friodur 11-V or 72-V would have the added benefit of being stainless, while still easily honing to a keen and comfortable edge (unlike some stainless steels). Unfortunately the V models are not as ubiquitous as their full hollow models, but if blade rigidity what you're after I'd avoid those. If you can live with carbon steel, Rigarazor is one of the best values in currently produced razors in my opinion, and all of theirs are quarter hollow. They sell via ebay exclusively nowadays.
Great suggestions, but since when is $300 plus dollar’s value. Want to see a stiff DE blade? Look what I came across.

Which Yaqi models have you tried?
I have four different stainless razors made in china. I bought two from Yintal, and these two have Livben written on them. The two Livben razors look like the Dscosmetic D8 Parallel head and S9. In hindsight, the Dscosmetic scalloped cap appears to be much thinner and has some shallower angles open.

From Yaqi, I have their slope and Thalia.

Yaqi appears to be obsessed with thick caps and all Yaqi razors I studied photos closely of appear to only allow steep angles. I’m only eyeballing the shaving plane angles and the Yaqi razors, on average, appear to force a steeper angle than their clones. I am fixing my Chinese razors by sanding down the caps and using shims or a thicker blade to increase blade rigidity.
If there is no one there to see the light, does it exist?
It depends who no one is. I am you and you are the light.
Bigfoot use a Remington Electric.
