Has anyone used the LTC2983 or DC2296A-KIT with ESPHome?

I have a giant smoker project that will use 6 PT1000 RTD's and 5 K-type Thermocouples and I need a commercial quality temperature measurement system, hence my choice of the LTC2983.

The MAX31865 and MAX6675 modules are cute, but after working with several of them over the past year, I find them to be inaccurate and often unreliable (failed initialization, comms stop working randomly, etc).

The LTC2983 uses an SPI interface device so I'm not sure there's much magic to this other than reading registers unless I have to load up the LTC2983 with code. I know Analog Devices provides Arduino libraries for it.

I'm just curious if anyone has used the DC2296A-KIT successfully with ESPHome yet?

Hard to believe that those chips are unreliable crap. Cheap AE modules might be though.
Wiring would be my first suspect when having problems.
