Welcome to the ODK forum, @jhall! We're glad you're here. When you get a chance, please [introduce yourself on this forum thread](https://forum.getodk.org/t/-/6671). I'd also encourage you to add a picture as your avatar because it helps build community!

You have quite the series of questions there! Any chance you have the narrative version of what your form is collecting (that is, the survey logic written out as it would be on a paper form or similar description). I would think there might be a more streamlined way to achieve the desired result - something that might be easier to analyze and to update if needed.

(Also, are you using ESRI Survey123? I noticed a column with header `bind::esri:fieldLength`. We can help you troubleshoot XLSForm as implemented by ODK. I am not sure if ESRI maintains complete feature parity on their fork.)
