I just did a quick test: one export with no style applied and another
export with a custom style containing sharpening set to max settings. The
two exported files are clearly different.

So I think the best option for downscale is to create a few styles (like
640-sharpen, 1280-sharpen, 2048-sharpen, etc.) and use the best one.

About what kind of sharpening to use, I use all the ones you mentioned
(local contrast, highpass, etc.) often more the one at the same time. They
are different. I usually use the basic "sharpen" with these settings: 1600,
0.800, 250. The threshold value depends on how much noise is there in the
picture as sharpening enhance the noise.
I rarely use the equalizer for simple sharpening only. High pass with
different settings and blend modes (e.g. softlight) gives very different
results as does local contrast.
