Do you have a use-case where Double NAT doesn't work for you? It's not recommended (because there are such use-cases, like some games) but if it works then go for it. I personally run my household and 50+ IoT devices with Double NAT and it's not a problem for me.
It is strange that running in AP mode is problemmatic for you because your wifi speeds shouldn't be different talking to the Orbi. But don't let that problem force you to abandon Orbi if Double NAT works well for you.
