Even then it would still need to know the source sample rate to make the proper analog conversion internally.
It would know the sample rate the minute it receives signal from the host DAW. If not, asynchronous sample rate conversion has been happening in systems for over 30 years. Which would also work.

It also has wordclock on the back which is at least one solution for clocking. Like any other audio interface.

It will not have HDX latency. That's a given. No external box can run at the latency as on-chip HDX plugins that are on-chip with the HDX mixer. To get to the thunderbolt, it has to transfer to the native engine.
