Hey......That's the end of Steamboat peninsula!

The three things you might check are: the saddle(as you already noted), the nut, and the string itself. As it sounds as if the problem is still there with the capo, I'd guess the saddle or the string.

I have found shorter saddle screws for my Telecaster at my local Ace hardware. Take one of yours in with you and use the thread/sizing gizmo at the store to figure out what size/thread pitch you need.

The high E string noise might be a saddle issue or the string itself might be bad. I wonder if the B string issue might be resonance through the neck and body causing the E string to oscillate. Does it change if you fret the B string?

I had the same issue with an SE Paul's. Seemed to be location dependent; noticeable at my house, really bad at my neighbor's house, completely quiet at the tech's shop and at lessons ( same amp). So I chalked it up to "dirty power". Reply from PRS Support stated that a bit of hum or buzz was not...

Love the "turbulence" in figuring between the pickups

WOW! Absolutely beautiful. I can't believe how well the book matching lines up.

I often feel inconvenienced by the perceived lack of action on other's parts, but then I realize it might be my own inflated expectations driven by first world privilege that is the problem. Not always, but often.

LOL, I charge EXTRA for that service;)

I use very fine sandpaper on my SE's. It turns the finish kind of "hazy", but man the necks are so slick, and stay that way for quite awhile.

I might be wrong, but I would think the PRS color code doesn't matter since you are taking them out. Follow the Mojotone color code when installing.

Perhaps the screwdriver you're using is a little too big and doesn't get enough "bite" into the screw head.

Oh please.....WTF does it matter?
