(By "sophisticated mopping capabilities," I mean an electronic water tank that is controlled by the app, allowing you to create the things like "no mop zones." For those features, but the S5 Max, on sale for about $80 more than this deal.)
If you have only hardwood floors, or only very tight outdoor-style rugs, or only a small 1-level home, then there are cheaper models than this (like the S4 or E4) that may suit your needs.
I have no desire for mopping, but I bought this S6 Pure last time it was at this price because it made it cheaper than the S4 Max. I just never installed the mop. It's been awesome. Highly recommend Roborock.
1. You need to use the Mi Home app. The Roborock app wasn't working (at least for me).
2. Your wifi SSID has to be alphanumeric characters only, and you have to connect to the 2.4GHz band, if your router is dual band. If you have a mesh router, it should auto-connect to the 2.4GHz band.
3. You need to give the app precise location permissions (otherwise it wasn't connecting to wifi successfully).
After the setup though, I'm fairly happy with the performance. The app isn't very polished, but it does its job. The LIDAR is definitely nice though, the mapping is fairly accurate in terms of boundaries, and drawing boundaries in the app is usable. Haven't tried the mopping feature and don't intend to.
The hardwood performance on rtings is much better than the Roomba 960, which made me gravitate towards this one, that and the zone mapping feature.

Thanks

2 level home, mix of hardwood and low pile rugs, no need for 'off limit zones', and I would use the mop feature, but it seems like everyone says it just uses water.. The i3 self-emptying been seems like a nice feature, but I don't mind emptying the bin out every few days.

others?
Also, does it make more sense to get TWO of the lower tiered robovacs and have them run on their own floors; or just use one for both floors?

S4 regular is bad with medium/high carpets and rugs, you want the S4 MAX or the S6 Pure in that case.
I personally use the S4 (non MAX) but I have 99% hardwood and tile, no carpets and rugs. I have 1 small rug in the kitchen and it gets stuck on the corner of it so I just move it aside when its cleaning.

Thinking about getting this since the S5 seems like it may be discontinued and OOS everywhere.
I would never use one of these mopping features on hardwood floors. They just drag plain water across your floor, which is terrible for hardwood.
Its not officially supported (ie they will probably deny any warranty claims if they detect any chemicals in the filter or lines) but some people on reddit have had success with mild cleaning solution diluted with water.
I just got this one a couple of weeks ago and it's pretty good. The LiDAR was what sold me, It maps perfectly my home vs.the camera system on the Roomba. Also it works in dark rooms/areas.
