I changed mouse wheel scroll to "previous >>> next" page on shared stash.
Bind demon spell is not assigned on any key, I have to select myself * just for the reason you "explored"earlier

* My mistake. I use a hotkey for binding but is set to F12, far away from regular used keys.

[...] if you switch your weapon set, lose too many skill points in Demonic Mastery as a result and drop to 1 summon, trying to summon a new demon to Consume doesn't 'not work' because your demon slot is blocked by the bind but then it does kill your bound demon, only to give you a stupid goat instead. So yeah...watch your weapon set when that's what pushes you over the 10+ Edge..

Tell me about it
I had finally got my Conviction / cursed Heph after one hour straight of shuffling between different auras and when I swapped gear I got below 10 points in Demonic Mastery. Using the reflex combination of Summon Tainted and Consume it for monster -fire resist killed Meph.

Take one
Be careful when swapping gear and remind to not summon the Tainted when doing so. As you guessed, I did!
I lost a streak of T4 Heralds. Agggrrrr!!!
Luckily I found another good Meph after 5 minutes.

Take two
Lesson learned (or thought so). Be extra careful when swapping gear. All good, everything going smoothly and didn't summon anymore when I was on swap. But at one point I think it didn't proc the swap Key "W" and remained on alt gear. After the summon/ Consume I heard Heph giving his last breath before dying.
Another streak of T4 Herald gone! Double agggrrrr!
Lucky again I found another one in only 5 minutes.

Have to remind to myself: Do not summon tainted on swap AND pay attention at gear you wear (take a good look at your weapons).

Much as I get wanting your proper Heph back asap, you really don't need to break Herald streaks for it. Any Heph will do in the interim. Or some other options if you already knocked him out in that game.

Are they perfect? Probably not. But typically good enough to finish off a game with for sure.
