I have an LG G5. I don't remember if I needed internet access to set it up, but currently I keep it offline and just use an Nvidia Shield (which is better anyway). No ACR, tracking, ads, ... in the TV itself.

By doing this you basically get a subsidized TV without paying with your data :D

The unfortunate part is that CoreELEC only works when you get all your content from a locally attached disk. You can't even really stream it from your beefy NAS/server

This is not true. Streaming from a NAS at high speeds is fully supported and works fine. I would suggest to use NFS over SMB though, SMB gives me issues for higher bitrate content

Streaming apps do indeed not work. It's a device for local / NAS media playback.

I find it so strange that Profile 7 is effectively unsupported outside of Blu-ray players and this one device.

Since DV Profile 7 is only used for Blu-Ray discs, and playing backed up BR copies from a non BR player is not really supported, it kind if makes sense that it's not supported.

For the Ugoos device, I'm not sure, but I thought the chipset inside supports it, but you still need to flash custom firmware (CoreELEC) and provide a Dolby Vision file to unlock this. So it's not supported out of the box.

Citation needed? Yubico authenticator doesn't (the secure enclave is the Yubikey). I'd be very surprised if MS Authenticator and Authy (which I don't use but are the most popular apps that I know of) support such backups

Google Authenticator has an export option that I've used in the past, so that one does it for sure. Authy allows cloud-based synchronization in any case, so exporting seems quite possible. MS Authenticator also allow cloud sync, so probably exporting is not difficult.

Also: 44.1kHz sampling rate != arbitrary waveform up to 22050Hz, unless music you're listening to consists of pure sine waves

Every signal can be represented as a combination of pure sine waves. That insight is the basis of Fournier analysis / transform.
