For me according to Barry Harris or Pat Martinos universe the whole tone and diminished scale are the parents of all scales, you just have the 5 (tension) and 1 (release), the scale degrees 1-3-6 are 1, the 2-4-7 are 5, so thats all!, just simplefy everything to 5 or 1' --- but the most important and makes the difference is rhythm and ofcourse timing! when you can hear tension and release you can do what you want.
I have to disagree with you about how you swing. You can vary it - and I think you should - as you play. Just don’t vary it on a really short time scale.
Are there any gypsy solos you think would make a good starting place to transcribe? I often find with my favorite Django solos that I can only figure out and cleanly play the easy parts of it so I end up "practicing" the lines more than transcribing if that makes sense.
I also find I need to take a brake 45-1 hour if practice and play A good sign for the first time traveling last few days this morning yes rusty but I do have the speed etc I’ve recently gained

This why it takes time to work out until we can feel meta beyond

I am learning the chord tones of songs and transcriptions

The more I play the more I can talk in interesting ways
Seriously it take me now two hours playing then I can get to improve
