Bill did you also swap out your lift pump o-ring/ notice any issues there?
The marketing line for r99/propel is “change nothing, treat it like normal fuel.”
They say the same for B20 (up to 20%) which is of course a completely different beast.
I’m also running r99 and have largely had the same experience you’ve had.
