Sadly, scaling is inevitable in hard water areas. Even an indirect hot water cylinder fills up with limescale, and the heat exchanger coil in that case is only heated to 60-80'C by the boiler. So called Combi boilers need water softeners and still suffer short lives in similar situations, kettle need descaling frequently etc.
The universal problem with all electric showers is that the water flow through the small heating chamber is so fast that the element dissipation an surface temperature must be ridiculously high in order to 'flash heat' the water.
If a low temperature indirect water cylinder scales up, then you basically have no chance with and electric shower, no matter what the control method you use - you simply can't heat the water fast enough at low element temperatures. The 10.8kW output and surface temperature of an electric shower element makes an ordinary domestic kettle element look like a toy.
With regard to scald risk (I note that the specification for the Mira shower that you keep referencing says:
Factory set to safe max. temperature: No
Higher quality shower models maintain the water flow through the heating chamber for a few seconds after the element is turned off, to draw off the excess heat and bring it down to a safe temperature (which also helps with a little with scaling). Burst fire simply isn't going to help you with this - you need to dump the residual heat of the element / heating chamber into flowing water when you turn it off.
