One reason for suspecting the APs is that I tried to troubleshoot an issue for years with Unifi APs intermittently not allowing connection from Apple devices. I never managed to pin it down, but I am pretty sure it was a bug with UAP-PRO APs sometimes getting into a problematic state.

I have done this before but would have to remember the right command line arguments.
Do you see packets getting lost if you just run a ping for a while or only when the connection is loaded?

Have you seen the issue on other firmware versions?
You can SSH into the access points themselves and may be able to see errors in system logs or if they are suffering CPU or memory issues when a transfer from wireless devices to server A occurs.
You could check the wifi status on the laptops to see if they are connected at the full speed profile expected. Not sure how to do that on Fedora or Mac, and probably not as they work in the other direction.
Another thought: are all devices definitely on the same IP subnet and not going through any kind of firewall in the gateway?

I get some system instability and run out of VRAM if I try some operations like upscaling. It feels like any less VRAM would be too little, but maybe it would work better with an nvidia card.

The problem is that for AI generated art current case law (in the US at least) is that no copyright exists in the first place because it was not created by a human author.
You can add my sympathies for such a horrible experience. I really hope you get more clarity and treatment for your dad quickly.
I also had to go to NHS A&E and various hospital visits this year, and some of my impressions are similar to yours. Staff usually compassionate and helpful but management systems full of inefficiencies. The system has not let me down nearly as badly as it did your family, but I see a lot oddities.
I feel like perhaps too long operating in crisis-mode and fighting for resources, has led to an inflexible culture where it is hard to rework how things operate.
