Wondering why the autofocus couldn’t be done by the Pi itself, rather than an M5Stack. Does the Pi not lend itself to real-time applications?

That can be also done. The pins are there (as you can see on the board design). I just wanted to separate the threads. It was easier to control the steppers with the M5Stack.
