So Option 1 is the approach I'm planning to do at the moment and would be happy to see this one. I'd be happy to look at some of those blogs you suggested.
I was a bit thrown by some colleagues saying that the intermediate domain domain would be a waste of time and effort if we are anyway going to sync up into AAD DS.
In my head it is an extra step, but you are setting yourself a fall back safety net should the initial migration run into any troubles.
Have you ever had to do this with a client that already has a somewhat partial footprint in Azure & O365 ?

That sounds like a similar setup to the environment I'm working on at the moment.
