Regardless of technical considerations you should be careful not to underestimate the impact of your decision to not support Maya 2019 with the V4 plugin,
as this may seem unfair and not in the Otoy spirit.

And the "Project and render output cannot be saved" is stated on Otoy's DEMO-page. It has never been stated that Otoy offers the complex (and expensive in development) Octane project's nodegraph functionality for plugins' commercial workflow for free. If you need this functionality for the commercial workflow - it is fair to pay for all the development of it by buying the commercial license for this workplace. If you don't need it in some parts of your workflow - just uninstall the DEMO plugin there, and you are free to save any opened scene (with no support of Octane nodegraph of course).
2. Already answered https://render.otoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=356122#p356122.
"Support" means fixing bugs, not continue the active development adding new big features making the stable production-suggested release completely broken again (and Maya 2019 has already brought a lot of issues into the 2018.1 branch, some of which are unsolvable currently 'cause these are Maya's brand-new internal bugs). So - yes, the support of version 4.X in regard of maintaining its stability will be continued.
Version 4.X branch has the feature-set you've paid for when you bought it, plus many free additions on top of that set. The development of any other new features is only happening in current new branches (with Bifrost support being the next big one). If you had a subscription - this would let you automatically get any new features implemented in upcoming major releases...
Thank you for understanding.
