Reference request: Reflection as a single axiom interpreting the whole of ZFC?
$begingroup$
Working in first order languge $mathcal L(in, W)$, where $W$ is a constant symbol.
Reflection: if $varphi$ is a formula in $mathcal L(in)$, in which $x$ is free, and $vec{p}$ is the string of all of its parameters, and if $psi$ is a formula in which $z$ is free and $y$ not free, then all closures of: $$vec{p} in W wedge exists x (varphi) to exists x [varphiwedge exists y in W forall z (z in y leftrightarrow z in x wedge psi) ] $$; are axioms.
Now with Extensionality this would interpret all axioms of $text{ZFC}$ since it would trivially interpret Harvey Friedman $text{K(W)}$ theory (page 3). Although I'm not sure but I think even Extensionality is interpretable using the above scheme only.
Has there been prior attempts to non-trivially shortly axiomatize ZFC with a single comprehension schema? and had this schema been studied before specially in absence of Extensionality?

Well, the Replacement scheme implies the Separation scheme, so the answer to your first question is immediately "yes."

To me all of the axioms of set union, power and infinity, all are individual comprehension axioms. What is not a comprehension axiom is Extensionality, Foundation and Choice. And by the way Replacement doesn't interpret all the others
