You're not gonna want to hear this, but your $1500 PIC is as uneven as an $80 PIC.
You can go with an uber-thick pan bottom to try to compensate for this, but what little you will gain from going to 8mm from 6mm isn't going to make a huge difference. And there is a very large downside: heat adjustments--responsiveness--will be slower. The only countervailing advantage is that sears are less likely to crash at the flop.
This is heresy on these boards, but if you must use a PIC, I'd favor a converter plate with 2-3mm of aluminum, and then straightgauge conductive-sidewall pans. But you'd still better plan on moving the pan.
Edited to add: The cited review is limited and superficial. If you're going uber thick, you might also search Cristel and Ballarini lines. And A-C's G3 line offers enhanced lateral conductivity in a lightweight form.
