Any high strung FI motor should have proper knock control and ideally even more layers of safety as you have described.
Overall I can only second what you wrote. Life, Motec etc offer amazing capabilities these days.
I am not a 100% keyboard warrior as most of the stuff I write comes from my own literature research and experiments on my own FI engines over the last 10+ years.

^ That is what this and all places need, is experienced people with good advice, and not pretenders.
Knock control is a must I agree.
