I choose not to have original quality photos on my Google Photos backup (or else I would run out of space there quite quickly. I want to offline backup my original quality photos outside of that limited space. I am happy to duplicate the photos to two locations, just not to have them completely swamp my cloud storage.

The question would be better if you included that information it so we don't have to wonder at your actual goals. The reason why you want to do something does impact the best ways to do it, so giving us a brief but thorough explanation of reasons can help you get better answers.

Possibly, but you can't always get every salient point into a question. You say what you think is relevant, but also want to avoid superfluous information. I've updated the question with everything that I discovered while doing this in the hope that it might help others with a similar need, and thanks also for your points on this, it was all really useful. 👍
