Excluding #2 in the OP, do you recall the LED behavior on the attempts to boot?
Have you tried booting a Manjaro SD yet? I've seen a few people go through similar issues after draining the battery and booting something not Debian(-based) got them booted and going again, after a long charge. I know it's an odd suggestion, but you seem to have taken all the other steps I could think of already.
I tried pressing the power button briefly, for a couple of seconds, for more than 10 seconds if that is what you mean?
As mentioned in the OP I do not get any LED responses upon any of my boot attempts (nor the screen). The only time LEDs light up is if I connect power (the LED near the plug in red), or briefly the power LED (the one with the on/off symbol on the keyboard) if I reconnect the battery (with bypass open) or if I apply wall power with bypass closed & battery removed as described above.
I just tried the Manjaro SD. No response either (tried with battery connected & bypass open, or wall power bypass closed and battery disconnected)...
