Why are you bothered? See above, you won't bring 300 let alone 3,000.
Additionally, it can't be 30% because that would mean the North stand at the KC would have to house 7,500.

The North stand isn't the only away allocation at the KC if necessary demand commands more. We can accommodate a 30% Away capacity if necessary with West Upper. In the majority of cases, the away support of any RL game isn't going to be 30% of any SL ground's capacity, and the RFL benchmark doesn't become an issue. Unless it's a really small capacity ground, like yours, then there could be a problem if away support demand is sufficient to warrant imposing the 30% rule (if it is one).
It's unlikely that demand will be anything like that for the derby, for the reasons you gave. But it would be interesting to see what would happen if Hull decided to command their share. You might have to give up your RM seats.
