Update below. TL;DR - crisis averted and no need to replace. (That is a huge relief.) And yes, I'm confident I could have gotten some of these services performed for less, but the hassle factor (and waiting for parts) is a material issue for me.
Struts are fine - which is also consistent with Mrs fwafwow's comment this morning. ("Oh yeah. I forgot to mention I couldn't hear the noise when I turned off the radio and listened for it again.")
AC - needs a new compressor. Part was in stock and all in with labor was ~$900. Freon top-up cost TBD (but thanks to the RS member who prompted me to make sure I get credit for what was removed when they evacuate).
Front brakes - pad kit and resurface rotors (something I learned has been on the "soon to fix" list, now at 2mm) for $280 all-in.
