Sure, anyone with a spare $6k can file a WOM.  Go for it.

Or @igoyougoduke's method of self-filing for ~$400

ASK for a copy of your medical exam at the interview - they're able to see it and print it for you. 

Interview was completed yesterday and oath scheduled this morning. It was a very ‘painless’ process the questions weren’t too hard and I was in and out in probably 30 minutes from the car park. They didn’t ask to see anything outside of passport green card and ID. She told me after the oath my daughter and I could apply for passports and if she was to be without a valid passport she may have to apply for N-600 to prove citizenship. Good luck to everyone on this journey .

These numbers are random, it's safe to ignore them.

How is NVC related to this? This is naturalization / removal of conditions case. No visas, no embassies involved.

You're right in thinking that. RFEs for I-864 are always like that - autogenerated and not specific.
 
I have no evidence, but I've been thinking for a while, some sort of AI / automation may be used by USCIS to generate RFEs.

I filed a mandamus for two N-600’s after our cases got stuck forever. I was very concerned about possible pushbacks but it caused the cases to finally get adjudicated.

Yes people file mandamus on I-751 all the time. And if N-400 is pending while I-751 is pending - both get included in the lawsuit.
 

Tier 1 reps tell all sort of nonsence all the time, unfortunately. And the worst thing is: you cannot hold them accountable. There's so many people who followed bad advice from those folks only to find VJ was more factually accurate source of information. Travelling with original extension letter is challenging from time to time, let alone a copy.

I've just done the same the other day - same with a bunch of updated lease/insurance/bills from our recent move. I don't see how any of this could cause a delay quite frankly, especially since most recent cases are handled electronically.

She won't get an appointment before Tuesday.  I would take the approved Advance Parole document and the notice of approval of the Green Card. 

Unless it's a dream job or position in very niche industry, I wouldn't bother continuing employment with the firm based in NZ.
 
Here are the reasons:
1) You cannot legally work until you get SSN + EAD (after marriage and filing AOS packet)
2) When you have SSN + EAD, is the pay competitive with what US employers offer? Coming from Europe I found salaries are higher in the US for skilled workers on average.
3) Are you ready to deal with tax implications related to working for remote employer in another country?
4) Don't you want to build US work experience to strengthen your employability in the future?
5) What timezone are you going to be working in? Is it worth it?
6) US employers provide medical insurance (very expensive). Are you going to pay it yourself?
 
Seems like you did a good job and your boss doesn't want to lose you, but sometimes it's just time to move on
 
When I was leaving to the US on work visa, my boss back in Europe was jokingly asking whether I can take him to the US 😂
 

Many people report seeing "Action was taken" with no visible changes. That's either a glitch on USCIS end or something internal. Maybe it gets send whenever your file is open (not necessarily when action was taken)

short answer: you aren’t allowed to work until you marry, apply for AOS and EAD and receive your EAD. so, you cannot work as soon as you arrive to the US. 
 
Long answer: 
You are not allowed to work any jobs including remote jobs/ jobs based in another country. 
Additionally, the job you are working now would have to go through a process to be compliant working with someone based in the US (and pay your U.S. taxes and  other costs) or you would have to be working as a contractor and pay taxes on the income you earned yourself.But you have to be authorized to work in the US. So, you will be sitting around the home waiting for the EAD Or green card before you can work. hopefully it will only be 3 months or so but be prepared to wait up to a year. 
 

Your US fiance should have discussed things like this with you.  The immigration process requires a great deal of knowledge, planning, time, patience, and a significant amount of money.  The following K-1 flowchart might be helpful:
 
 

You will submit the I765 with the AOS package to apply for an EAD.  Once you get the receipt notice for the I765, you can request an expedite with a valid job offer.  Have your boss put together something formal saying they want to employ you for the expedite.  Also, apply for your SSN number a day or so after you arrive.
 
Good Luck!

Eventually
 
You marry, then file to adjust including EAD and AP.

I doubt it is an approval this quickly, but who knows.  More than likely someone either started working on it, or some internal work was done.  You won't really know until they either post a NOA or you get something in the mail.  Is there anything new posted in the documents section?
 
Good Luck!

Which part is not true?

There was a whole thread somewhere on VJ where one of the former VJ members @Mike E gave a lot more examples of CBP detaining US citizens while figuring out whether they're US citizens and can be admitted.
 
CBP even published report on how many citizens were held in CBP custody over 24 hours.

You seem to expect:
1) USCIS work fast and provide consistent experience
2) People on USCIS help line to tell you truth
 
Neither is true...
 
4-6 weeks for checks to get cleared and receive notice in the mail is the norm. I wouldn't worry about checks clearing or receiving notice in the mail until May 5th or so.

You've made two contradictory statements above.  Never heard of NVC accepting anything but direct from a US checking account.
