I have never heard of hides causing aggression with large snakes. I've only looked at as it's a giant snake, who makes hides large enough to fit 15 feet of snake?!
The last point is mainly what I was referring to, where you were saying larger snakes go without. Cat litter pans with a larger hole cut into it should fit a decent-sized Burm. Might not fit a 15' Burm, but a big cat litter pan might fit a 15' retic if it isn't obese (not that that's pertinent here). Larger than that, you can go with Sterilite tubs, you might have to paint it though. Plenty of options for an adult giant, if you aren't looking at reptile-specific supplies.

As far as the rest of the suggestion, I assumed OP was already removing the hide to measure temps, but if they aren't then that would definitely be a good step to take.
