Play with a free Platform.sh account, it’s what Adobe Commerce Cloud is based on and it’s practically identical with a few caveats. I went through the exercise of deploying the Magento Cloud GitHub project to Plathorn.sh a few years ago - I think you can likely do this without an enterprise license. You can at least get far enough to get some real experience

I feel like the most useful thing to know for anyone still using Magento 1 is that they should probably immediately upgrade the codebase to openmage https://github.com/OpenMage/magento-lts because jfc, and then seriously consider if their life would be improved with moving to some cloud service that manages security for them.

Magento doesn’t store passwords directly, it stores a hash. The same is probably true for WooCommerce. You wouldn’t be able to re-hash the password but you may be able to tweak Woo’s hashing logic to match Magento’s. I would avoid this though, password resets aren’t very burdensome and even give you an excuse to engage with customers. The rest you can probably migrate.

You’re likely putting too much thought into it. If you want to go with a .htaccess rule, I’d suggest updating the one in pub/ and making a rewrite rule routing to your WordPress directory. Personally, I would consider Magento and WordPress two separate app installations and would add configuration to apache directly for this. When you install Magento with composer, .htaccess files and the like will get clobbered so the separation is nice.
