Not sure anymore whether I posted my actions on installing/running Elive and E16 on the PinebookPro arm64 laptop.
So before I carry on I'll share my actions:

Currently the whole thing is on hold but I'm thinking of going at it again soon .... depending how much time can be freed. 
Appreciated.
Looks like a ton of work....
Damn, that's a lot of work. Nice! Now we just have to put all that work into an elive version. 
Also ... You called yourself "lazy" inside that webpage... This is an insult to me considering I wouldn't even think of doing that much work. 
Lazy as in not wanting to do repetitive stupid tasks. 
That's the reason why people write a program or a script in the first place.
On a side note:
I suddenly remembered that all the packages on the Live image are listed in "live/filesystem.packages". 
So that's a little less work.
