Are small ceph clusters viable?
I sincerely recommend checking out Microceph, it is designed specifically for smaller edge clusters and Homelabs.

Want advice on planned evolution: k3os/Longhorn --> Talos/Ceph, plus Consul and Vault
Ceph can be technically challenging to support yourself. I'm all for learning new things, but I don't want to be left with some monster I have to constantly administratively feed either. Have you seen https://github.com/canonical/microceph ?

Are small ceph clusters viable?
I've been very happy with my cluster. I've been slowly upgrading my drives as well to larger capacity... buying a couple of drives a month to spread the cost out. It's going well though I do find I have had to resort to a scripted reweighting to make it "gentle" or my performance does tank during the build of the replaced drive (I use this script to do the reweight and it works like a champ)
What are some alternatives?
