I do not have a direct answer to your question, but I can chime in on your scrub times:

I have 4x8TB, 4x10TB, and 8x3TB drives, all in one huge BTRFS ‘RAID1’.

I can tell you that even in my setup, scrubs usually take less than a day.  So unless it’s the raid5 making yours take so long, that does not sound typical.
