Right, so I thought I was home free, but not even close. My array is
back up, the badblock feature is disabled, array reports clean, but I
cannot access data past 8.8TB, it just fails.

That has nothing to do with MD. You are using a power of ten suffix in
your block size, so you are running into non-aligned sector locations.
not really, I read the whole device from scratch (without skip) and it
read 8.8TB before it failed. It just takes 2 days to run, so it's a bit
annoying to do repeatedly :)

It doesn't matter where I start, it fails exactly in the same place, and
I can't skip over it, anything after that mark is unreadable.
I can switch to GiB if you'd like, same thing:
