Just plug the lower power device in the unpowered or powered hub from the first example. You’re just adding a hub for no reason.
Comment on Will there be power issues if I plug an unpowered USB hub into a powered on or vice versa

I might be misunderstanding, but wouldn’t this still be a problem?

Why would the first be a problem? The powered hub doesn't get the power from the power hungry device from the unpowered up, does it?
