I wonder if the manifold psychic powers and the lesser 2 of the tevijja are included in sammā ñāṇa?

Dear Gabriel,
at the beginning of this discussion you reference the suttas above in relation to the 10 factors that a arahant possesses. Where did you find these passages? Did you collect them yourself or from another source? With friendship, neonative

I think I searched them - which is not such a big deal. I take the search phrase and let the computer search through the e-book. Sometimes I take the pali term too and search suttacentral, and then order the results per nikaya…
Btw here are some reads for you re. the 10-fold path
-
Rod Bucknell: The Buddhist Path to Liberation (probably the most interesting read)
-
Bh. Analayo:
From Craving to Liberation / 12.5 The Path to Liberation
The Mahācattārīsaka-sutta in the Light of its Parallels
Bh. Analayo shows that in the Agamas usually Right Liberation comes before Right Knowledge
And of course if you want a long commentarial perspective you can consult the chapters in the Vissudhimagga

that’s the case in the Gradual training as well, because it’s the knowledge of liberation or of distruction of taints

That’s right! I very much recommend to read Bucknell’s article. Maybe it’s a classic thing to do, but I’ve seen it for the first time that someone convincingly parallels the gradual training to the 10-fold path.
In the versions of the gradual training where the practitioner after the 4 jhanas (which is samadhi) comes to the three knowledges (the knowledge of 1.former lifes 2.the passing and arising of beings 3.the destructions of the taints) - that would be nānā. And finally he knows ‘I am liberated’ - that would be vimutti (although technically we have the knowledge of it too)
