I was looking at the rackmount version of this box (specifically, the 1U Q31031UE/i3-10110U) to replace an HP SFF running PfSense, so thanks for reviewing!

Also: "It is probably fair to say that there are newer, faster options, but we are testing another Qotom system at the same time as this one, so we are using that as a comparison point"

Do tell

Does this box / CPU even have enough PCIe lanes to drive 2 x 10Gb ports at full speed ???

Apparently it has 16 lanes (pcie3), and the diagram is confusing but is that 4x for 2 10Gb, 1x for the 2.5s each, 1 for nvme and 2 others, if so seems ok? Would be more worried about the CPU not being up to doing much with the data though.
