Thanks Peter, all very useful to know. I wasn't aware of the E-2 visa. How does one justify extraordinary ability for the O-1, if pursuing that route? I can see it varying a signifcant amount between applicants, but what (if any) successful justifications have you seen?

Yes, it varies significantly from applicant to applicant. Justifying extraordinary ability is more about checking certain boxes/criteria than extraordinary ability per se and so, in the end, it's usually pretty clear whether or not someone qualifies.
