Another important aspect is that there is concern with heat with the
OppoMod that I have read elsewhere, and recently Toga pointed out that
the ZeroZone doesn't suffer from it. Interesting.

That's not it at all, at least for the one I purchased. The ZeroZone digital LPS (I haven't researched the regular one that's cheaper) uses Japanese capacitors and is in any case better designed in one major aspect - as you noted, it has a huge aluminum heatspreader to handle heat unlike the Oppomod. As I said earlier, the only thing that I can think of is another party wanting a cut - the ZeroZone is not only as good as the OppoMod, but arguably better. I couldn't find any reason to justify the price differential and so I bought the ZeroZone, which has been amazing in terms of video and digital audio improvement over the OEM SPS.
