Hi Matt, I realized that my old galley sink fixture was costing me a lot of water usage because there was a separate hot and cold knob on each side of the existing fixture, and I was always turning it on, leaving it running while I washed my hands, etc., then finally turning it off when I was done. I really tried to close the taps quickly, but even then, as the valve heated up with hot water, its flow rate would change, leading to more adjustments.
In the end, I just replaced it with this: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XV3PEKY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It required a larger single-center hole than the old one (1.5" vs. 1"), but that was easy to remedy with a dremel. It took a little over an hour to replace, and its now really nice to get the right temperature on & off with a single pull, not to mention I'm sure I'm saving a lot of water as I just get my hands wet, shut it off, soap, and then turn it on to rinse. Unfortunately, it is hard to get to the underside of the faucet in the head of our 37/40+ due to the holding tank configuration. If it was easy, I would replace that one as well.

Cheaper and more choice for the CDO (chief decorating officer).
