Regarding Roon Bridge and 64-bit moOdeOS, I figured I ought to try the initial test I proposed.
1. Spun up a freshly downloaded copy of 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS Lite on a Pi4B. [Aside: It took me two tries before I remembered the new requirement to define the initial user account in /boot/userconf.txt!]
2. Followed Roon's instructions to download and run their installation script. I chose the armv8 rather than the armv7hf script.
3. Executed the script. Everything appears to be copacetic but I don't have any way to test that this Pi is now a valid Roon Audio Device.
