I'd like to know if there are any binary blobs required to boot and/or use the Wi-Fi chip.


In addition to the wifi, I recall the preloader at the start of the boot chain is also a binary blob, which handles some of the chip init and memory calibration for the DDR4.


almost certainly. we don't know what's running inside the modem chip
