Does any sort of filesystem, object storage solution, union filesystem, RAID configuration, etc support JBOD style arrays with round robin object writes?

  a featureful union filesystem

While you can use MergerFS to create a JBOD system that will survive the failure of one disk, while allowing writes across all of them, I want to state for the record that this is a terrible idea.

  Greyhole uses Samba to create a storage pool of all your available hard drives, and allows you to create redundant copies of the files you store.

Greyhole may be a good solution for your problem. It tries to put files in the drive with the most free space, so since your drives are similarly sized you should get something near a round-robin effect. It also has options for making multiple copies of files if that is something you want.
