What's been more exhausting?

That's my whole reason why I can't get behind the "take a lineman later" thinking. It makes sense on the surface, but it also smells like you're not prioritizing something that desperately needs prioritized.

O-line feels like that middle child gets lame gifts while the others get a PS5.

They did get Reiff, but it was just a 1-year deal. They might re-sign him for another couple years depending on how he does.
Their big need right now is OG.
They seem to be "ok" with Spain and XSF as the incumbent starters, and likely will (hope to) get a new OL or two who could start at OG.

I am a bit frustrated that they didn't try hard enough (offer enough) to sign Thuney or even Zeitler though. Anyone who looked into cut candidates knew they would have had enough $$ if they were willing to move on from guys. But they waited too long into FA to move on, resulting in a bad pool of candidates remaining.

Zeitler or Thuney starting at OG with XSF at the other, Williams and Reiff at OT, and Hopkins at C would have been a quality OL (on paper).
EDIT - Heck, if they would have been willing to move on from Uzomah too, they could have gone with a WR and TE in Rds 1 and 2, and then drafted a swing OT in Rd 3 to groom behind Reiff.
