Ideally, do the above plus add shielding around these flexible cables in some way where the shielding does not restrict the flexibility of these connections

The hot glue sure helped me complete my first Maslow project at last.
I did then become overconfident and tried it with some 1" plywood and I suppose the Z went low enough to cause an encoder error. So I put my money where my mouth is and bought those replacement RJ45 cables. I will glue them in as well and so I’m hoping their flexibility will do the trick.
I got them here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Z2T51DV?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1
I’ll let you know how it works.

Is that a power drill shelf/charging station?
Yes! I bought the dxf files from Etsy for 8 bucks:

This looks awesome! Great work!
I’m glad to hear that the hot glue did the trick. We’ve got JST-XH based encoder boards now too which will hopefully be a more long term solution option.
