Not really sure how Romanian Deadlifts or a Kettlebell swing could be a swap for hip width squats. A hip width squat, for me, would be still be a somewhat hip dominant movement, but it brings a lot of quad in.

RDLs and Swings are a completely different motion. Very little knee flexion and all hip hinge.

Agreed. Move the stance out to shoulder width and it will be a whole lot easier to sit back and avoid knee pain.
