I think you have a pretty good idea of what's going on...
The whole online world is now just a cesspool of rubbish and the tech bro's and probably a big chunk of civilisation are going to end up self destructing because of it.

Another avenue could be the RF 200-800mm f/6.3-9 IS which is heavier and even less bright (but that is not such an issue with the latest RF bodies and progress in RAW noise reduction as mentioned before). You get the extra focal range for birding at the cost of ⅔ of an aperture stop.
The original question states previously using fixed aperture lenses, were these mirror lenses of past? They were comparatively lightweight and low bulk, in exchange for some noticeable comprises in image quality.
