You are clearly not the target audience for this. It comes with 2x10G SFP+, this is targeted towards homelabbers and running multi-cluster setups. Its silly to compare with a Mac Mini....

Yes. It does not have an Oculink port, but it supposedly includes an Oculink adapter that can be installed to provide the port.

The MS-A1 barebone does have oculink port. Weird.
Would the Ryzen 9 7945HX bottleneck a 9070xt?

Should be alright if you use an 8i OCuLink. If those exist yet.

I have the MS-01, but using it for custom software that records, transcodes, and uploads data from live events with many parallel threads to meet QoS demands. Portability was also a concern.

Maybe by the pure TDP of 55W the R9 has

If you can push it at 75w without issues it should be fine
