if you're rooted, then the ota won't apply via the google system update. your rom has to be completely stock in order for it to work. your bootloader can be unlocked. i don't know about flashing the ota via twrp. i've never done it.

These wouldn't allow a user to downgrade, correct? Like, to 7.1.0, use dePixel8, and then root?
correct, they will not allow a user to downgrade. there isn't a downgrade method available for locked bootloaders.

Can the updates be installed out of sequence? I'm currently on the Oreo March update, can I install the May update without installing April first?
if you flash the full factory image, yes, you can flash the may update over the march update. i don't know about the otas though. i always flash the full factory image.
