To clarify, the socket should contact the inner race of the bearing and nothing else.

Actually, the socket it to fit the nut on the axle to tap the axle out.

No harm in hitting the nut. If the axle puts up any resistance, it's best to not side-load the bearing, so a socket to support the inner race would be ideal.

Based off the picture. It looks like one of the bearings is required to come out with the axle

Ah, maybe so.

One or all of the pawls have gone bad. the freehub should lift out from the RH side, give the axle a tap on the RH side while holding the freehub and it should lift away.

Just checking, is there any downside to using a 12sp chain on an 11sp derailleur/cassette?

Nope. Runs a lot better imo.

00.4019.932.001 is the part number for the new air spring for the Lyrik/Yari, eh?

On an different, but related, note, is there a significant enough difference in performance to justify upgrading it? (2018 vs 2019 debonair).

I'm looking to replace the braided lines on my hope tech 3 V4's to non-braided.
I have a brand new set of Code R brakes with non-braided lines.

Can i swap the lines or are Sram / Hope brake lines specific to one another?
For example are the inside diameters of the hoses the same?
I'm just asking about the hoses; my LBS would swap the fittings (assuming they fit the other hose)

TIA

SRAM and Hope hoses are very different from one another. You will need a Hope hose for a Hope brake.

In theory they're the same (banjo at the caliper and direct mount at the lever) but seraph is correct. That swap ain't gonna work (new code/level/guide banjo is a proprietary fitting to sram calipers) Just as easy to get the genuine line kit as it would be to get something to bodge it.

Why would you want to make your brakes perform worse?
