Have you thought about building your own strip light? The 22” Samsung FStrips could work great for a 3x3 and you could space them to get nice even coverage.
Would this veg a 3x3 ?

I feel like if I had the 2000 I would turn it down to like a hundred and sixty to 180w and it would be perfect

Gonna go with the HLG 100 in 4000k and see how it goes. If anything, I can add another one but I doubt it will need it.

I am using an HLG65 for seedlings through the solo-cup stage, then move to a different veg area.
I have two HLG65's and have used the second to keep plants happy when the other rooms were clogged up.
If you are looking for plug and play for veg, I would go with the HLG 135. You can dim it down to whatever you need, but you can also take a 3x3 straight through flower if needed.

I can pair it with my current 1000 if needed until I put a second one if its needed.

Dude if u have a 1000 just use that , I'm using it and the plants are more than happy, got it up at 160 now

As much as I dislike MH, that might be better overall spectrum for veg. And as stated that dimmed down to 160 would give you more wattage than the HLG 100.
The heat from the HLG 65 and 100 is basically negligible, especially in a 3x3 with a small fan.

That 2000 is also like $250 USD....for that price, easier to build a board and just smash it lol. This isnt even for my main veg tent so it doesnt need to be something over the top. Side projects tent really...
