Low tech is good: HSH

I have read many reports of guitarist trying to find the maximum number of switching options in 3 pickup guitars

Problem is, we’re geared for maximum variety with the greatest simplicity

My preference:

HSH

 - humbuckers wired conventionally to a 3-way toggle

- single coil wired to a second 3-way toggle in an in-phase/off/out-of-phase setup.

- 3 volume puts

-1 times pot

 This allows all combinations of all pickups, and adding the out of phase single coil to one or both  humbuckers produces an broad, unique range of tones.

 No coil splitting, coil tapping, no push/pull, no batteries, and if the single coil matches the pickguared color, it can look like any bog standard 2-humbucker guitar.
