kde tilling features needs some attention
KWin used to have no tiling capabilities at all and people came up with lots of add-on scripts like kwin-tiling, Grid-Tiling-KWin, Krohnkite, Bismuth and so on. This gave users tiling, but it was always a bit hackish, getting KWin to do something it wasn't designed to do.

A couple of questions regarding Bismuth tiling extension
I said I was using kwin-tiling-script, and yes, it does have that—I use[d] it all the time (it's called "Grid" layout)

Manjaro / KDE — hard to dislike
If you're referring to kwin-tiling the author has archived that as of end of 2022 and it's unmaintained. It's not really anything KDE did on purpose except to do the usual updates and that's broken an unmaintained project.

Does KDE have a (official or non-official) tiling mode?
I use kwin tiling

What features is KDE missing according to you
If you are ready to sacrifice gaps (and some other advanced features like taking away title bar from tiled windows) and run multi monitor, then I would suggest kwin-tiling. It has no settings, but out of the box with changing hotkeys similar to i3wm you can get great tiling experience (it even supports moving window from monitor to monitor using meta+shift+hjkl if it hits on the border)
-
Is there a way to increase/decrease the opacity value of one window with the keyboard?
The last DE I used before jumping to bspwm was KDE with kwin-tiling and one of the features I miss is the ability to change "on the fly" the opacity of a given window with keyboard shortcuts.
-
What tiling window method to go for?
I like KWin-Tiling-Script (https://github.com/kwin-scripts/kwin-tiling), but Bismuth has better desktop integration and is more popular.
-
Arch + Tiling Window Manager
Before making the jump to a tiling WM , I think you should use a tiling KWin script for KDE. It will help you get used to a tiling WM but still have the familiarity of KDE. https://github.com/kwin-scripts/kwin-tiling is a good one that I use.

Praises to the KDE Development Team and KDE Community
Indeed. This has served me well: https://github.com/kwin-scripts/kwin-tiling

How to Customize the Floating Panel
I paired this with the tile-gaps script to make the floating gap stay floating. In the script's settings you can declare the pixel gap for windows to match the panel gap and check the side that the panel is on.

What are your favorite kwin scripts?
Also Window Gaps. Not particularly useful but just makes me more happy looking at my desktop.

What features is KDE missing according to you
You can get gaps back with Window Gaps KWin script.

Tops of maximized windows keep going below Latte Panes
It's called: Window Gaps

Latte Dock is not reserving space after upgrading to wayland.
You can use this kwin script as a workaround https://store.kde.org/p/1619642 However, it might cause buggy window alignment

KDE Snap Assist 1.1 now supports quarter and triple tiling! You can switch layouts using the Tab key or button in the corner
See the discussion on https://github.com/nclarius/tile-gaps/issues/16.
- Is it possible to draw a thin border (~4 pixles) around windows?
-
Is there a way you can change the gaps on the floating panel?
I wish I was knowledgeable enough to work it out properly. I would like to be able to make it not expand the panel when I maximise a window. I use Window gaps It would look better if the panel stayed floating
