Excellent and detailed description. I have a few dissenting opinions..
1. You do not need to touch the 32 mm axle nut. Once the two bolts between the strut and the steering knuckle are removed, you can pull the drive shaft apart from the inner drive by loosening the boot clamp.
2. I thought removing the tapered pin on the shift coupler is too much trouble. You will almost always get bogged down removing it in car. Actually there is no need to touch it. For the old style coupler there is certainly no need. For the new style coupler I always disconnect the shift rod by loosening the collar bolt so I do not touch the tapered pin. I thought doing a shifter alignment after install is much easier.
3. I thought it unnecessary to remove the alternator. I always just remove the two bolts between the power steering pump and the bracket. As the drive train is lifted I just pry the PS pump away from the bracket so I lift the alternator together with the drive train.
