Rules as written what you are proposing simply does not work as Distant Spell only affects spells that have a range of 5 ft or more OR a range of touch. Sadly spells like Sword Burst/Thunderclap as well as the Booming/Green Flame Blade have a range of self (5ft radius).
If your DM allows at your table I would suggest not doing it. Why you ask? Because it is generally a bad idea for a squishy caster to be within 10 ft of MULIPLE enemies lol.
Sword Burst has a range of self so it does not qualify.
Thunderclap doesn't have a range of self. It has a range of 5 ft. It is eligible for Distant Spell which will increase the range to 10 ft.

Is this a good idea, enhancing these cantrips to attack all within 10 ft?
Or does that situation come up too rarely be effective.
