Have you considered a Boss DD500? It's full stereo and the warp mode lets you blend into and out of infinite repeats by holding the on/off pedal, plus you can assign parameters to an external expression pedal. It has tails too.

Over on the lemmy.studio post someone pointed out Boss has delay pedals too, I'm really liking the RE-202 so far. It has both warp and twist mode, and same expr/ctrl1,2 jack, and no menu screen. I was also able to confirm the Source Audio Collider does have tails, so that's back on the table too.
Yep, my old DD20 does everything you list except there's no external expression pedal support. Cascading in and out of oscillation just by holding the in-built pedal is pretty easy once you get used to it, so that could be a budget friendly option if you're willing to go used.
A bonus would be to also have tails
Also looked at:
- Catalinbread Belle Epoch Deluxe. Not stereo and can only have one of tap tempo or expression
- EHX Deluxe Memory Boy/Man. Not stereo
- Source Audio Collider. Can't tell if this supports tails or not.
The main reason I'm wanting stereo is that I have stereo chorus and tremolo, with a mono delay sitting between them.
There's more compact options I've looked at include Keeley Halo, TC Electronic Flashback 2, and EHX Canyon.
Obviously, there's Strymon options. I admit I haven't look too much into these.
I don't have a strymon delay, but can vouch for the quality. I've got a flint and deco. Both are staples on my board.
After I answered your post earlier I thought about the ehx memory man with hazarai. It's stereo, and people speak very highly of it.
Thanks. Just watched some videos on it. Doesn't have seem to have an expression pedal, so need to fiddle with the knobs to oscillate.
Source Audio Nemesis is pretty great and can do anything!
Thanks. I've seen that pop up in a few reviews of other pedals to compare, but haven't watched any dedicated reviews. The two I've been looking at most recently in my quest are the Strymon El Capistan and EQD Avalanche Run v2.
The El Capistan is nice, have played with the EQD though. Is there a specific delay sound you’re chasing or do need a Swiss army knife?
In the realm.of swiss army, but mostly I want tap tempo with subdivisions, stereo in/out that actually does stereo echos, and hands-free self-oscillation. I was about to pull the trigger on the Wampler Metaverse until I found out it's just stereo pass-through, and then again with the Boss RE-202. Over the course of reviews I like the sound-on-sound modes in the Volante and Avalanche Run.
