Most nations aren’t looking at the approved list for stuff to buy, they’ve mostly all had their own internal programs
Exactly. Even quite low ranking teams seem to have at least sponsorship arrangements with manufacturers, if not R&D collaborations.

BC will be bummed that everyone else has time to copy the Hope bike before Tokyo 2021.
They won't have to copy it, they can just buy it - them's the rules, and with an extra year Hope might actually get deliveries out to customers in time, which was looking a bit questionable. They were tight for getting BC the 40 units needed for Tokyo.
They probably can't copy it, because there's no good reason for UCI to reopen the homologation window, so Tokyo 2021 gear should be picked from the already existing list of gear qualified for the abandoned Tokyo 2020.

any particular length?
Whatever you assumed in your calculation. danstuff's recent experience suggests sticking to the spoke manufacturer's nipples to be on the safe side, which you may get with the spokes from some shops when you're buying spokes individually.
Personally, I like building with the DT Hex nipples just because it's quicker to get the hex driver onto the nipple than it is to engage a conventional spoke key on the square. -
I'd round up the spoke size to 263mm wouldn't I?
No, you'd round down to 262
