Bach wrote 2- and 3- part Inventions as a exercises for aspiring keyboard players to perfect one's technique and touch.
Since any exercise is supposed to be difficult and push you to the limit,
I did just that. This way they ain't any easier than some of Chopin Etudes.
Don't take it as a recommendation to follow. Other than "ZERO PEDAL ALLOWED".
That should be a given 😉
Anything else - tempo, dynamics...do whatever you can.
It's good for you - and it's fun!
