I think a solution is in the push-pull arrangement of two stacked capacitors. Their join automatically adopts 1/2 of supply voltage. The volt level rises and falls slightly during a cycle, accommodating lopsided current and voltage differences. (I believe that's the explanation.)
The transformer needs to be constructed with a widerr ratio.
