Your host Raspberry Pi runs a distro that supports Diretta for transport. That surely can't make Roon core redundant, along with all that DSP, library management, and Roon updates. I asked an AI and it suggested:

Roon Core > Diretta Host (Linux) > Diretta Target (Pi) > DSP speakers

So the best of both worlds: Roon core for convenience features, Diretta for clean transport. Does this sound about right? I couldn't find David Snyder's article on this, just the endpoint videos. It certainly is interesting.
