So, in essence, the single entry bookkeeping will be sound if the change is not allowed?

  This sounds like "0 code". No code is the best code because it never breaks, has 0 serve space requirements, will never need to be reformatted, etc.

  Single entry bookkeeping isn't really a thing and isn't really keeping books. It's just an account register or account statement with no totals or anything to check against. Double entry basically just means that for every transaction on your books, you are showing where the money/asset/liability came from and/or where it's going. If you enter that you paid $100 for the AWS bill, you need to indicate from what account that money came from. So you would debit AWS Expense and you would credit your Wells Fargo Checking Account. With modern software, this basically just amounts to entering the expense and specifying which account it came from.

    In my mind it would be more like only a total - 'single entry' is how most people manage their wallets: '£5 change, put that in there, oh I have £15 now'. No record of where anything came from or where anything's gone.
