Thanks @SuzieQ.
1.I received the new phone on Wednesday March 24, 2021.
2.I am unsure how long the “RMM STATE : Prenormal” has been showing. I only began trying to figure out the problem after I couldn’t get TWRP to flash.
2a. Is “RMM STATE : Prenormal” the reason why "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed (recovery)” is showing on the phone after flashing via Heimdall?

I can access the OEM Unlocking option in developer options and it is on when I flash with Heimdall. From what I can tell the bootloader is unlocked but Knox is blocking the flash.

My first attempt to flash this S9+ was via Odin 14.4. Here is what it does👇
- My 3rd attempt was the Easy Installer.
