"Definitely considering transcoding my flac library to 96 vbr opus for backup purposes."

I'm not sure what you mean. FLAC should be the backup.

I have a local backup of native files, but I also have some external 1TB drives I usually get access to once a year and store at relatives places in case my house burns down. They aren't big enough to store my entire media library so I usually end up downsampling to "good enough" copies in case of a disaster.
