Given that I would try to sell my current headset after, what do you think? Are those features enough to warrant the upgrade? Can I use the pass-through to connect it to my desktop somehow? Does the FOV increase make a noticeable difference?

I would say YES go for it
5 degrees extra may not seem like a lot, but its more than you had which is a step in the right direction. I don't think it will make a big difference though. Its kind of like getting 5GB of RAM for you computer when you previously had 4GB. The headset is also pretty light which helps a lot. Sometimes with VR headsets i feel like I'm doing neck exercises at the gym lol.
I see you went ahead and ordered it! Hope you enjoy it.
