    HK, I always hope your near when it comes time for a diagram, always a wonderful job.

    One thing I like to add, per Code, when the white wire is used as a hot, which is allowed for a switch loop, it must be re-identified as a hot, "permenently .... by painting or other effective means at its terminations and at each location where to conductor is visible and accessible".

    A black marker works fine.
