You use the wrong tool.
With ardour:
Slice the original take, move the ends to overlap a tiny bit with the new
take, let the automatic fades do their job.
Or move the boundaries edge to edge and use the fact that ardour has a slight
fade-in/-out at region borders because they would pop otherwise regardless
whether they overlap with another region or not.
Works like charm and doesn't need automation.
Have fun,

I do not really understand what the problem is
with using MIDI control
change for mixers. The resolution? For 2 data bytes there are 127 * 127
= 16129 steps. The number of channels? It's unlimited when using as much
IOs as needed. IMO there already is a standard for all apps, it's called
MIDI.
IMO automation is overrated, it's useful, but OTOH how often is it
needed to change settings during an opus? Most times a mix, selected
synth etc. are fixed from the start to the end of an opus. For example,
normally a musician plays an instrument dynamically by the touch or by
using a volume pedal. Dynamic for the loudness seldom is done by a fader
after the recording is done.
I disagree.
Automation, especially audio automation, is extremely important.
