Edit: besides, TCA's schematic clearly shows fixed voltage on the G1s.

I think it started on Zeniths in A or B line, 19-25". I think
the 14 & 16" used a triple triode & I dont remember where it was
mixed. Cant remember what others used it, been to long.
Maybe I will look at a few Sams tomorrow to refresh.
