Actor Model Overview
Akka.net is a good framework (it's a port from Java), it has almost all concepts of the Actor Model, is very flexible and seems easy to use. The main disadvantage is Akka doesn't implement a Virtual Actor Model, so if you want to implement DDD with Akka, it can be a challenge to mimic the Virtual Actor Model.

MassTransit with MSMQ vs RabbitMQ
If it's the former you may want to take a look at something like the actor model akka.net with persistent actors (https://getakka.net/articles/persistence/architecture.html). No need of an external message broker or mass transit (which is a wrapper over different message brokers). You could use sqllite for persisting the actors state to recover in case of a restart.

For .NET 6+, is there value in using NHibernate with Sprint.net or should I stick with EF Core and the usual supporting libraries?
Spring and Hibernate are the goto libraries in Java land and I suspect that's the primary motivation for your colleague's recommendations. It's quite easy to bulldoze someone less experienced with your ideas so be careful of that. I'd avoid both. They aren't bad libraries at all but they have a 'legacy' feel and it will make your application less future proof. Would a distributed system be viable? If so then I'd recommend Akka, there'a .NET port of it that's well supported and maintained.
