It's not impossible! In fact, here's the EV for all 3 lines:
EV flop donk = .40
EV flop check = .39
EV XR = .14
EV XC = .15
EV XF = 0
I would donk the flop >70% of the time here. Very sure that xr the flop with T4 is very poor, even with a bdfd... if we don't donk, xc imo. Many other hands prefer to xr + are suited better for it equity/playability wise. Donking + xr ranges are constructed completely differently.
xr bluffs ~ 98,86,64,43,34,36, tons of 2 overs + bdfd like T8, JT, Q9
^ a lot of these hands should also be donking the flop.
Just because a line is +EV (like XR the flop here with T4) doesn't mean we should take it. Often there are other lines with similar EV that play much better without how our ranges are constructed!
TL;DR: Either donk the flop, or XC
Edit: XR flop was not as bad EV wise as I thought~ However, Still very poor strategically imo
