1/2 Ok question for the ETH tech community: why don’t we have lots more precompiles? For example, I can’t do Ed25519 in a smart contract due to precision/scale issues, but could make it a precompile that nodes could run. As long as the gas fee is high enough to deter frequent use, is there a drawback?

Because the core devs refuse to add them, full stop. There's been literal years of arguments about it because of what is effectively a difficulty with decision making on how to handle EVM versioning.
