Don't worry about the upfiring topper. Just grab these for the rest of the speaker as it is a great deal.
I hear that it is a little more neutral. If you are using Audyssey or room correction I don't have any harshness. It was a little honky without at loud volumes but could be my room. I have an untreated room open to a kitchen and they sound great. I have the 280F, got them years ago for $299 each from frys electronics.

Do you think the upgraded tweeter in the RP-8000F is worth the extra $100?

Having experience with both if you have no interest in the built in enabled modules, for an extra $100 yes it is IMO.

Well that height is within the recommended parameters.

How it will sound will vary for each of us.
Keep in mind that design is a "Atmos" alternative.

I've had these for about 3 years now with 9 feet ceiling. If you're like me who's limited to say a 3.1.2 setup with no surrounds, the atmos up firing gives just a little bit more immersion that I miss from not having surrounds.

IMO yes unless you prefer to listen at very high levels and or in a large layout/environment.

I was thinking it would be cool to pull the drivers out and make some bookshelf speakers out of them

I grabbed these a week or two ago and am considering another pair. They sound great even with pushing them at 100watts instead of the 300 they can normally be pushed to. I do have the top firing hooked up as well and they are awesome especially for the price. Trying to resist buying another set
