The term doorstop refers to a door-stopping device, “Any device or object used to halt the motion of a door, as a large or heavy object, a wedge, or some piece of hardware”. Like the terms boat anchor (“something obsolete, useless, and cumbersome use is to be thrown into the water as a boat mooring” and brick (“(technology, slang) An electronic device, especially a heavy box-shaped one, that has become non-functional or obsolete”), doorstop can be used to refer to obsolete and useless equipment.

First, “Everything has 2 handles” says that all-that-is, or the universe, has 2 handles. What is wrong with that? The sentence is complete sentences but it loses a meaning. The variants “Everything has two handles” and “All things have two handles” are an all variant, but using Every helps to avoid the confusion.
Who are all men who have one head? As discussed above, most people will take it to mean “All men have one head each” but as noted in the question, it could be taken to mean “All men have one head”. What you mean by mainly unambiguous rephrasings with
various meanings and nuance include Every man has one head. No nonsense.
Every man has his own head.
Man has only one head. Why?
All men on earth have one head.
All humans share one head. I mean what a man looks like. Let’s talk.The phrasing “All men have a head” and “Every man has a head” are grammatical but like “All men have a head”, as head could mean either one head each or one shared head. All men have heads ” (in this dictionary) but all males have heads ” (in other languages)” (to get rid of all male
heads)?
