How Virtualisation came to Apple Silicon Macs
No need to keep Mojave to run iTunes — iTunes can be run on newer macOS, by using Retroactive [1] to patch it.
Regarding running a newer macOS on older hardware, check out OCLP [1] — do make sure you make full backups and have a working recovery plan before trying anything with OCLP though. I know that might sound somewhat obvious to a lot of folk, but you'd be surprised at the amount of folk that jump in and try OCLP on their main system without any backup plan.
Note that are some gotchas re installing OCLP on some older h/w, and it will help to read up on possible issues before wading in. e.g. during installation it might be necessary to use a wired keyboard and mouse, via a USB hub, until the installation is done, you might also need a wired network connection during install, similarly. Depends on h/w (I've not patched MacBooks myself, yet). Once the patcher is done, these should not be needed anymore.
Official support for OCLP is only via Discord — but there is a very active unofficial peer/user support group on FB [3]
HTH!

What vintage mac to buy for iPods?
That said, my 2020 Mac Mini M1 also works great with the USB iPods - I used an app called Retroactive to get iTunes 11.4, which works fabulously to load my iPods. Can't say how well it works with the Firewire iPods, as I don't have all the requisite Thunderbolt adapters to make it work.

- Am I missing something here?? I’m so confused.

3,1 need OSX10.15, any reason to go higher if able, or stay with 10.15 for better compatibility?Big changes from 10.14?
There's a project called Retroactive https://github.com/cormiertyshawn895/Retroactive/ that lets you install iTunes 10-12 on Catalina and newer OS. You could do that and still keep your playlists, etc.
- Asking for Itunes back is too much but COME ON, 'music' is absolutely terrible cross the board BIG SUR
- Music on Mac keeps duplicating local playlists even after deleting individually

Follow-up on sessions vs catalogs
you can run Aperture on newer Macs https://github.com/cormiertyshawn895/Retroactive/ just in case you want to check.

uBlock Origin Lite now available on Firefox
You are mistaken. Safari removed the APIs necessary for an uBlock port (there used to be one), see https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari/issues/158.
Injecting code via Web Extensions is too late for reliable blocking - by then, either the malicious JS you are trying to defuse has already ran (if it wasn't blocked declaratively), or if it hasn't, then the rest of the page's JS depending on it has already exploded and "fixing" it after the fact (by substituting a neutered shim via Web Extensions) doesn't fix the rest of the page.

Are there any updates on Safari support?
Better to fork it and maintain as another project, like previous ublock's project on safari: https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari
- Firefox is the last bastion of pirate ad-free hope. Can Mozilla hold out?
