MicroPython • Pico with 4 1306 OLED

Hi, I've had this little project going for a long time and I have had a great time working on it. I bought some Pi Pico's and a set of SSD1306 OLED's. I have been wanting to use these in my car to display meaningful data from sensors in my car. Right now I have been able to get 4 OLED screens to display at the same time with only 2 separate addresses. (This is because each oled only has two possible addresses and 2 i2c busses.) So by running 2 addresses on each bus, I am able to run 4 oled's. One of the limits for the pico is that it only has 3 analog to digital converters that I can use so displaying using more sensors than that, I would need more Pico's. (Unless someone can tell me how to connect more automotive sensors to the pico so i can interpret and display that data...) I have also created byte arrays for numbers 0-9 so that they can be called at a later date to show things like voltage or temperature or AFR's. If anyone has any suggestions for the future or comments about how wrong this is being done, I would love the feedback!

I also have the hope that this can help others in the future to create similar things.

PS I have a jumper from pin 39 to 40 that cannot be seen in the image.
