Exhaust always necessary, intake for a small amount of plants is enough just opening the door daily...

Are (constantly) high daytime temperatures a huge problem in flower?
My day temperature since turing my light up to max during flower are reaching 29-30c | 84.2 - 86f, while the daytime RH is at roughly 40% - 50%. Is the high temperature something to be concerned about? pics 1 and 2 are the exact same data as pics 3 and 4, just set to c/f each.

Is this clawing, or just droop, (pots fairly dry)And why can’t I get RH below 70% with more than adequate ventilation, I’m recalibrating my hygrometer in the meantime.

6" Fan in 3x3 Tent
I bought a 6" fan for a 3x3 Vivosun tent and I'm noticing a good mount of negative pressure even at the lowest setting. Do I need to get a 4" fan? There are some vents on bottom sides of the tent. Can I use those to lessen the pressure? Thanks!

Humidité
Humidity varies quite a bit and I invested in a humidifier but it doesn't solve the issue. I have 2 fans and two passive intakes, but I think I have too many plants and I'm in a basement. Thank you very much, humidity is not good for flowering.

Throw out one plant?
Is it productive to kill one plant if the rest of the plants are filling out the room just fine and to promote ventilation and light penetration? I have one plant that is way shorter and behind the others due to genetic problems.

Is it a fire hazard if 5v computer fan is jammed and the power is on for 2-3 weeks? I'm far away from home and I have camera in my growbox. A tape has fallen to the fan and it is not rotating. Can it heat up so much that fire starts? Should I drive 1600km for that?
