Looks great - forum flashback.
Though also it makes me absolutely not want to do it at all, given my hallway is about 5 times the length of that and my current approach of 'starting a project, leaving it unfinished for 2 years, starting a new project' probably means my grandchildren will be doing the tiling.

I did Victorian style mosaic tiles on my hallway floor and used self-levelling (we had a concrete pad under some of the floor, screwed down the boards, then a sheet of 12mm(?) OSB over the top. Less bendy than ply that thick. Tiles still look good after 6 years.
I posted in this very thread https://www.lfgss.com/comments/13789198/
Engineered wood is 18mm and should be laid over a foam underlay to absorb noise. Adjust the thickness of your OSB subfloor to get the tiles the same height as the floor.
