I think my Fargo is pretty Rivendellish, if not exactly Rivendellian.
Steel, high bar, Silvers, sub-compact double (38/24), sensible gearing (83

Not sure, but I suspect Rivendellian + disk braked = oxymoron

Not at all. The essence of a Rivendell, IME -- I've owned 5, custom and
stock -- is the fit and ride. These can be easily achieved with any sort of
brake. Grant has backtracked on lugless building; he may well just
backtrack on disk brakes. I'm not holding my breath, but on the other hand,
